Got a question, "rear center" brake line, wtf is it. On the box it says camaro 98-99, wondering if maybe they have this thing? I couldn't really see how this rear center brakeline fits, so i skipped it. I see where it is, it goes from the driver's side rear wheel over the pumpkin into a bracket, but the new hose just didn't look like it could fit. Am i not getting the full effect of these lines now?? Whats it do, how do i work it in if its necessary? Thanks.

If you bought it then put it on. The whole purpose of the SS lines is to try to eliminate any give in the stock rubber lines. I'm sure you've seen the difference in quality.
It won't "hurt" anything to NOT put that line on but your not getting any benefit out of the other lines by leaving it off. That line is now your weak link.
It's as easy to replace as the other ones. There's just one bolt that holds that T fitting on to the axle housing. It's just a little awkward to work with is all but fits together like the others. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
