Has anyone had any problems with Stainless steel brakes "popping" or failing in any way? I like the solid feel of the brake pedal after installing them. I now have hear (on another Forum) that there have been several failures. If you know please give details and manufacturer.
Thanks, Richard in Knoxville,Tn

I've had mine for about 3 yrs with no problems. Nor have I heard of any.

My left front SS brake line failed a few months ago. I was lucky that no one was infront of me and that no one was in the intersection.
I was braking for a yellow light when I prolly should've gone through it. I was putting an awful lot of pressure on the brake pedal in order to stop. The tires were just about to start squealing when all of a sudden the brake pedal went to the floor.
So, yes.........SS brake lines can fail.....they were on my truck for about 4 to 5 years. I ended up just replaceing all of them.
