I think that if you ask a parts store for bulk steel brake line, that is what
you will get. Steel is harder to work with, of course, when bending and
flaring (double flare), but you can do it with the right tool..

My local NAPA has a flexible brake line catalog that lists lines by ends and
lengths. They can match almost anything.

Most tractor dealers can make high pressure hydraulic hoses for you. If they
even think you want a brake line they won't do it because of U.S. Dept of
Transportation specifications. If you strip the old ends and clean them up
and ask for a replacement hydraulic line, they might make it. You will have
to decide if you can trust it. Good luck--Sam
