    Does anyone know of a manufacturer of stainless steel braided flexible brake lines for the Tacoma, that are approved for trucks with Vehicle Stability Control?
    I searched here and found 3 threads that have nothing to do with the idea, and the places I have looked say without VSC.
    I used them on both bikes, and my miata and I like the feel.

    I wouldn't on an offroad just because of the electric power brake system. You already have a super firm pedal, one of the firmest in the industry!

    No but it is likely more sensitive to pressures and expected expansion of the rubber hoses.

    You can't drive these things 9/10ths clipping apexes with the tail out. Plus it already has rear drums

    You can not push the vehicle to 90 percent of its performance envelope, while placing the tires exactly at the apex of a corner with the rear tires slipping sideways while driving the vehicle forward.
