Rear Brake Line Replacement - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Has anyone out there replaced their rear brake lines? I am in the process of patching mine up, but want to know the easiest way to replace them. It looks like there's not a whole lot of room to work where they run down the firewall, and then it looks like I would also have to drop the gas tank..

Does anyone know what a mechanic would charge to replace them? I have a couple leaks under the interior.

I am just going to patch them up with some hose clamps and stainless steel braided rubber hoses for the time being, just to get me by for a while.

It's a 1993 Camry LE 2.2L I4, 4 Door.

NO NO NO. Just replace them. Brakelines are something that you dont want to take chances with. You can go to a salvage yard and get some cheap. Or get some new ones. But if you are going to get new ones then go ahead and get the braided steel ones so you (or the next owner) will never run into this problem again. Plus they say you feel a difference in braking too.
