[s-cars] Rear brake line failure....

[Jim Fleischer]

Hey guys,

The girlfriend ended up with a very mushy brake pedal on the way home today, and there is some tell-tale brake fluid all over the left rear wheel.  Have not jacked the car up yet, but I can only guess that it's the original brake line that failed after 14 years and 78K miles.  So, the usual questions......what brake lines should I use, just do the rears for now and do the fronts later, or all at once, etc.  Patient is a '95 s6 avant, stock everything, can't afford the BBK on this one yet, so need to go the inexpensive route for now.  Part #'s, BTDT links, etc. much appreciated.  This is my first real brake job, but I've spectated numerous times, so please take that into consideration.  Don't mind getting dirty, and we've got some great weather ahead for car-wrenching.  Thanks!!

Best regards,
