Default Stainless brake lines

I know people have used the ZZP lines, not sure if they are available in the longer lengths anymore. It doesn't appear so on the site. Anyone use anything else? Have any pics installed? I found these for the older Wbodys, not sure if they would work or not. Opinions and options are welcome. Thanks

I will ask this again as it didn't get much feedback. I didn't see Techna-fit have anything for our cars. Its been posted that all the Wbody use the same lines, although people who use the ZZP lines say to get the longer lines. I found these Russell lines for a great price, and they list the 98-2003 GP. So in theory they should fit. Can anyone who actually has braided lines on their car confirm what they used, with part numbers? Thanks

Same here as they never seem to be in stock, that's why I started searching for other alternatives to ZZP lines. Something should work, I grabbed a set of these Russell/Edelbrock lines. If they wont fit I can probably use them on my 04 GTP. The price was too good to not at least try.

I got mine from ZZP, no issues, got them quick. They are not listed but they are the extended lines, just give them a call and they will help you get the right ones.

Months on the exhaust, cancel that and ask for a credit for the interest. This exhaust looks decent, just add some mufflers and tips. I dont have it, but will be my choice when the time comes.

I just ordered stainless lines tonight. I was waiting to get them from ZZP as well, but pfyc has a nice set for the same price. They are Goodridge lines like you posted near the top.

Also in one of the reviews for these on pfyc, they mention the lines are longer than the stock ones. Hope this helps.

When you get them in if you could measure the line lengths that would be great as GXP could possibly be different than the Monte. Post back some pics too.Good luck, and thanks.
