line lock, sizes to connect I was just wondering what size ends you would need to connect to the abs and the solenoid to make your own lines. I know there are some nice kits with prebent lines but I was thinking about trying to do my own so that I could route it exactly as I want it. I was looking at the SJM solenoid it is only $40, then get some brake lines at part store and then find the ends that I would need and double flare them on. I just thought I would see if anyone on here happen to know what size it would take to directly plug in.

I've read a decent amount about this on here. Everyone who's made their own lines for either ABS delete or for a line lock have gone with 3/16". That's what I'm doing for my car.

Alright thanks, I will be keeping my ABS, however I would kind of like to make my own lines if possible, I would prob route them slightly different then the kits do, and I know you can get the brake lines pretty cheap at the auto parts stores as long as they are nothing to special as far as fittings go. I have a switch i can use to arm, then would put additional one to use as momentary switch and would prob go with the SJM solenoid since it is only $40; however if it was going to be just as much money to make the kit as it would to buy complete would prob just go that route.
