Who makes brake lines? And is DOT approval necessary?
From Frank Lin : (mail@removed.com) “When Z.Speed looked into getting DOT approval for their stainless lines, they found that there is no certification process. There is a spec for brake lines however. Z.Speed’s lines meets or exceeds the DOT standard. When SMC first started selling lines (early 96), they were selling Goodridge lines (which claimes to be the 1st DOT approved lines). I’m not sure if SMC sell their own lines now. Stillen also recently started to market Goodridge lines.
