The new brake lines are from a company in California, named Bonaco. I heard about them from a buddy of mine who's in the late stages of building an RV-9. The company has a kit for almost all the different models of RV's, so they've been doing this for a while. When I called to get some info, the manager there, Brett Jarvis, was extremely helpful in letting me know all about their product line. I was the first Ligrhtning to get the Bonaco brake lines and after several weeks of use now, I wanted to report that I'm extremely satisfied with the product. When the article gets published, I hope you take the time to read it. There's some pics in the article so you can see the product. By the way, I am not getting any money for touting Bonaco, I just think the quality of the product is superb and ease of install is notable and wanted to make sure you were aware of an alternate brake line system. If you have questions, I'll be happy to reply. Happy flying and braking....

Mine let air IN?? Strange, worked Ok as a parking brake but when pumping the brakes it allowed air in to soften up one side. Have taken it out for now.
