Omegared1 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) 2006 LGT Limited So today I began the task of changing a frayed steel braided brake line on the passenger side, and the end that connects to the line broke. Does anyone know what the part number is for that line/pipe? Not sure if it's this part: https://parts.kearnymesasubaru.com/p/Subaru__Legacy/Brake-Pipe-Pipe-ABS-LHD-Front/49235536/26514AG01A.html?partner=googlebase_adwords&kwd=&origin=pla&device=m&userLocation=9031861&kwd=&matchtype=&device=m&network=g&userLocation=9031861&googleCampaignID=1672110615&googleAdGroupID=66505488202&googleAdID=323787698083&googleExtensionID=&gclid=CjwKCAjwsMGYBhAEEiwAGUXJafPCfTUPcHfAXdNbafl1AP0BnXBgWtA5I5yzvrbmxUvKRdtCSB9FbRoCcE0QAvD_BwE I just need one line, not the whole assembly. I traced the line and it goes to the ABS control module. Getting close, but still don't know if I can buy just the broken line. Thanks All for any direction anyone can give.

Max Capacity Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 You can measure that line, go to NAPA or other auto parts store and pick up a Ni-Copp line that is easy to bend by hand and replace what you have. I did that on my 86 Ford F150. The lines come with the ends on them. 1 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

apexi Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I'm with max. I did some searching, and it appears you have to get that whole front assembly from subaru, which looks like it might be a pain to replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omegared1 Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 Awesome! Much better option than expected. Looks like those lines are very easy to work with. Thanks for the assist Max & Apexi! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tehnation Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 The abs is right above that wheel( front passenger), so installing an oem one might not be that bad? They don't sell individual lines? Maybe check aftermarket. Looks like the lines aren't all individual... nervermind lol! That does not look like fun to fix. How did that even happen? You run over something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omegared1 Posted September 16, 2022 Author Share Posted September 16, 2022 Replacing it was super easy. Advanced Auto Parts had exactly what I needed. So, the car was sitting for 3 plus years and it was seized on. The bolt head was already stripped, so I was just a matter of time. Just glad to know it was easy to fix.

JoeInOregon Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I have a concentric flare tool from my HVAC days . I have used it a bunch of times on other stuff , they are so much better than the other style makes flares easy. If you are into acquiring tools, they are so nice to have laying around The one everyone in HVAC buys is a 100 plus. I bought a cheap one from Amazon when I got itno HVAC and it served 5 years and still works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
