    Is this still going on? Is there a significant improvement with braking when switching to SS lines?

    I think there may be a tad bit improvement..but main reason people buy these is because they need longer lines due to suspension upgrades.

    Now that I have the stainless lines, I can feel a little difference. I don't tend to jam on the brakes hard. For light braking, there isn't any difference. Medium to hard braking, the pedal is stiffer. I have been running these brake lines for about a month now and I can still feel the difference. It is almost like factory is stepping on foam, where is has more give to it, and these stainless lines are like stepping into a block of wood, so that when it catches, it is much firmer. The factory lines will bulge a little, but not much, when you step hard on the brakes.

    I got these lines because I lifted my truck, and have plans for shackle flip kit on the rear later as well. If you pull a trailer a lot, then these lines could be a good little help. For a better brake improvement, replace the rotors and pads with higher quality. If you run an empty truck most of the time, don't bother with these.

    I think the first two members to respond did a great job. To answer the first of your two questions, yes, this deal is still available. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

    Haven't stopped by to say thank you yet so I figured I would. Awesome brake lines and excellent customer service/ship times. I think I had mine to my door in less than a week after ordering. Thanks octaco!

    Received and installed my lines. They truly do make a difference in stopping. Everything feels "tighter." Couldn't be happier.
