Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can help with a brake line repair/change on my 95 Camry. I read the differant post and have the typical broken brake line near the rear of the drivers door. I havent been able to get the car up on blocks yet to look but looked with a mirror and there seems to be 4 lines under the door.I don't get it what are they 2 brake line and whats the other 2 (fuel?) Anyone have any info on anything would be helpful.The car doesn't have ABS. Any line size ideas? Thanks a lot.

3/16" brake line will work. Re-use your old Fittings and use a brake line bender to make the bends correctly.

All of your brake lines and fuel lines run down the same side. The passenger Rear, drivers rear, Main Fuel, and return line all run down there. The Passenger Rear Branches off and runs behind the fuel tank to the passenger side.

The smaller diameter lines are brake lines. The larger are fuel

If your long section of line is leaking (Under the plastic) Do NOT use Compression unions. These are not Safe to use.

Replace the total length of the line.

If your making your own brake lines, you may want to check out the following DIY:

The nickel/copper brake line is worth the extra cost. I suggesting using that instead of the steel line. It is twice as easy to bend and doesn't rust any where near as quick as steel. You just have to make sure that you don't have water in your brake fluid, so flush it out and use new fluid if you do use the copper line, or it will turn your brake fluid green with copper carbonate and wear down the seal on the master cylinder's piston. If you do use steel line I suggest using a can of rubberized undercoating on it.
