So i ran something over tonight...
Monday, July 17, 2006 12:07 AM
and i hit something which i guess was pretty big and sharp...So after i hit it i exited the highway and thats when i noticede that i had a lot of play in the brake.. and when i got stopped i had a HUGE puddle right underneath my driver door so i check the master cylinder and it was empty i knocked the lines out of the bracket and ruptured my lines...Does anyone know how much it cost to replace a line? Plus there was a gash about a inch long where this metal something cut threw....ill get some pictures soon... Thank god for the E brake or id be dead...lol

depends what part of the line it got... just the rubber hose between the hardline and the caliber should be under $50... or you can take the time to upgrade to stainless lines if you want.

What exactly did you run over? Mt Everest?

the little time that i saw it looked like a piece of metal of iradium because it knocked everytthing loose... its the hard metal lines running to the back of the car. it pretty much split the line in half...

You might be able to splice it back together with the right tools. Fairly expensive to replace the whole thing unless you get a piece of straight line and bend it into the right shape, which is also a pita.
