yesterday, i had my rav up on the jack at school, and i noticed that toyota used rubber hoses for the brake lines behind each wheel. as the car aged, ive noticed a slight spongy feel in the pedal (i thought it was just air, so i bled the brake system with every oil change) so i tested the lines, and it turns out that they are expanding when the pedal is pressed.
so ive decided to replace the O.E. rubber lines with new steel-braided ones, and i was wondering if anyone else has done this before? I was wondering if anyone could tell me the length of the hoses so i know what to order from my parts shop. while im at it, i think i might replace my brake pads and get my rotors/drums machined....
but yeah, any help would be greatly appreciated.
