Brake hose options?

[spidr]

Been a couple years since I've looked for anything new for a project that I'm starting from nothing.
Normally, I prefer to use the russell 3an straight premade lines, banjo or inverted flare adapters on the ends, hard line on the frame. I'd like to do soft line the entire length on this project, Are there any good DIY PTFE lines out there? I remember Nylon lines becoming a thing years ago, I looked up kits and found the ALLStar clear kits with push connect ends and pipe threads, but I'd prefer something compression fittings

Suggestions? I've got individual masters, an inline hydraulic e brake, its a whole lot of places to leak if I have to run 2 adapters on every end, hoping to build something that just threads straight in, no hard line. Simple.

I had a thread similar to this a year or so ago if you can find it in the search - ended up just ordering all the softlines from G&J Aircraft made to spec and shipped to me fwiw. Not sure if that helps, but there was some good info in the thread...

When i did my buggy I used a kit from speedway, same type of stuff as the Allstar kit but it was only compression fittings.

The kits are nothing special, just regular compression fittings and the tubing is parker parflex nylon. All common industry stuff.

I sleeved mine in some spots where abrasion was a concern with hose sleeve.

I'll look it up. I like information.
I could have lines made here, the hydraulic will do it if I ask nicely but I was hoping for something at home.

I think it's the pipe fittings that I'm disliking, compression fitting threaded into an adapter I'm just not a real big fan of for no real reason

Brake/Trans/Fuel Line Plumbing & Parts Selection

Needing to plumb complete brake system, fuel and trans cooler lines for the current build I've been working on, and thought it'd be worth posting some of my thoughts and questions in hopes of extracting info from the hive mind here:homer: But also maybe make a good resourceful thread at the same...
