Stainless braided brake lines. I likey.
I recently purchased all new brakes for my 97 F150 2wd. I was fighting a pulling when braking concern. (close to 100k on it, rear brakes were over 3/4 left, and fronts were 7/8 gone).
Anyway, replaced everything. Still pulled upon initial application of brakes.
I said screw it. Never in my 30 years of pulling wrenches for ford had I ever personally experienced a 'bad' rubber brake hose.
I bought some stainless steel braided hoses. Installed the fronts. PULL gone. Pedal is MUCH firmer. BRakes feel kickass.
A couple of weeks later installed the rear hose as well. Even FIRMER pedal feel.
Wish I'd of installed these hoses on LONG ago. Well worth every penny of the upgrade!

I can't remember the name, but I found them after doing a search on ebay (and looking thru all my hotrod parts catalogs, and figuring the online ones were the least expensive choices).
$89.95 (plus shipping), was what they cost.
Sorry I can't remember the exact company names.
