Only thing I know is most if not all bend the lines in half for shipping.

I called one of them and asked if I could buy a set and have it shipped full length and they said they could but shipping would be alot
 
Inline tube is spot on perfect. The shop is close to me. So they let me pick up the lines without bending them for shipping. You won't go wrong with their stuff. This is inline tubes fuel system on a 1972 Dart.

the only thing i didnt like with my inline tubes fuel line is the half smashed bend that 72Dart6pack also seems to have recieved with his.

I used In Line Tube and yes the longer lines were bent for shipping, but I had no problems with it and it all was pretty spot on.
 
Did they mark/tag which bends had to be straightened out? I got prebent brake lines and the mfg tagged them.

My fuel lines were from In Line Tube. Just about flawless. I would buy again in a heartbeat.
 
I also am happy with Inline. They were only ones offering complete sets including caliper lines. I did everything stainless.
 
I got all my fuel and brake lines from inline but I just bought the roll and bent it myself. I used all the factory hangers and got it pretty close its not perfectly "original" looking but for me it's close enough and I saved a ton of money bending it myself. I got the copper nickel it bends super easy.

Got mine from InlineTube. Brake and gas lines for 69 Dart. Came in a box with stickers and instructions how to straighten. Very happy with the quality and fit. Looks just like factory. Didn't do stainless, car won't see much weather.
 
I forgot about the copper/nickel line. Thanks for posting that stuff. Nice job, I might just go that route. A roll up here for 25 feet is $60....off amazon its $25.....
Inline tube is gonna run me around $160 delivered for 5/16" regular steel.
I already got prebent brake lines

If you bend your own lines, don't forget the flare nut. :D

Dude funny story about that. When I did my brake lines I flared them all with the nuts but on one I messed up and used the wrong nut so I had to cut it 2nd time right nut wrong direction, third time no nut at all!!! Finally got it right on the fourth flare! I was mad that day. Haha

I think I did my Brakes and fuel lines for around 65 70 bucks and that included all the hardware. It was like 180 for the brake lines alone prebent.

I forgot the nut too, the flare I made was a work of art. This was back in the 70's in Northern Virginia, it was good times for sure. Now I just buy my lines.
 
I was running CAT 5 network cable to some rooms of the house. Got to a spot in the garage directly above the garage door opener, cut an access hole pulled 50 feet of cable, out the hole, cut the next access hole snaked the cable to it only to find that I had wrapped the cable around the garage door opener.
Pulled it back and fed it again this time being sure not to go around the opener.

Had that not happened I would give nothing to laugh about.
