Does anybody know a place where I can buy pre-flared brake lines....ie., I need 3/16'' steel line, 3/16'' IF flare nuts....so all I need to do is give them the general length I need.

I know Acklands-Grainger Profastners used to carry them, but not anymore.

These are custom lengths, so I can't just buy something off the shelf (and I only need 2 lengths, one from M/C <-> Left brake-tee ; and one from M/C <-> rear connection, so it doesn't make sense to buy a high quality flaring tool for 2 lines)

I tried auto value but they just stared at me blankly. Guess I didn't hit the right counter person

did you tell them you drove a Z06? it might help if you told them you drive a Z06, be sure to mention Z06 a few times.

Usually it's up to you to make the flares yourself.

Good luck.

ask them to show you the brake lines they have.
