    I am hoping there is an aftermarket stainless steel or comparable replacement part for the brake fluid hard line between the caliber and bracket on my 06 Tacoma Prerunner. Any suggestions?

    buy line, bend, flare, install

    That's all I have done for hard lines for 35 years but the prebent OEM ones are nice when they fit

    Only if I can install a flexible type line from the caliber. Really want to remove the hard line if possible.

    Yea you can buy hard line and bend and flare like another post above me said. Or buy an OEM pre bent and flared line. Either way I’d get stainless lines so they don’t rust through.
