6th Gen Brake Lines - Page 4

00 Trans Ram · 01-25-2017, 08:58 AM

I wonder . . . are the GM replacement part numbers the same for the SS and the ZL1? I can't find 2017 Camaro parts on the regular GM parts websites to check.

My 2 cents. I don't have a definite answer.
But... whenever there are take offs for sale when an owner swaps to the Brembos. The calipers come with brake lines.
This could mean that the Brembos come with lines because the stock ones won't work....or they come with lines so why keep the old ones....

I've had them since the first batch... but I have a scratched caliper and I'm waiting on a replacement so I can do everything in one shot - caliper, Phastek lines and fluid. I don't see why they wouldn't work and I'll update the thread if I end up doing them before anyone else with 6-piston Brembos.

I had a look with my inspection mirror in a passing moment last night, the only thing different is the angle of the tubing where it attached to the front caliper compared to factory, but doesn't look like it will cause any issue.

The brochure I posted seems to confirm that! Please update us on the install!

I've been asking to see if this would work with 6 piston calipers since SEPTEMBER 2016, and still don't have the confirmation from the seller.

Anyone know of any other option (SS braided brake line for 6 piston) out there????

jaymsu · 04-29-2017, 10:31 AM

Any ZL1 / 1LE / SS with 6 pot owners who installed SS braided brake line yet?

Sorry we have not been able to confirm fitment. Finding a local customer that is willing to let us test this kit out with their car is kinda hard to find. Most are worried about the warranty side of it, which is understandable. Once I do have confirmation I will update.

I know I have measured the 6 piston lines and our lines seem to be long enough. Just waiting for that 100% confirmation.

Would love to know if these would work for the LT cars with the front Brembros

crankaholic · 05-22-2017, 12:00 AM

Well I've been away for a while... but I did get to check the fitmet! The lines are too short for 6 piston Brembos :(

I mean they fit, but you can play a tune because of how tight they are when the car is at full lock and full sag! A bit of an exaggeration, but not safe to drive at all.

I got a different set made for the ATS-V and they're long enough. The passenger (I think) side loop that attaches to the strut is in a slightly different place, not sure why that is, but it's attachable and works fine.

Small feedback I received Today from the dealership.

I told them about a clicking sound coming from my rear driver's side that I can hear when I am driving by a wall like in a drive through. They figured out it is some sticker on the axle wacking the line kind of like a baseball card in a bike wheel.

Just so you guys know. LOL

Just to point out the differences in the lines and why lines made for the standard (4 piston) brake package won't work on the 6 piston setup.
