    Sweet I got the those brake lines from Spruce and have them on their way.

    Question do I need to buy any other fittings or internal compression collar (are they reusable)? I don't think those are damaged at all. Just the tubing got cracked.

    Fittings are all fine to use again. you will need new collars as once they are compressed you won't be able to reinstall them on the new hose even if you got them off the old.

    Hmm I am trying to look up collars and can't seem to find any on line. Is there a source or a direction you could point me?

    Amazon has them.

    https://www.amazon.com/Legines-Brass-Compression-Fitting-Sleeve/dp/B0761P2V6G/ref=sr_1_12_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1540329521&sr=8-12-spons&keywords=3%2F16+compression+fitting&psc=1[/url]

    Copy n paste this address, or just search for 3/16 compression fitting sleeve.

    FYI - I also found 10 foot sections of 3/16 nylon brake lines on Amazon too.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards
    Rodney
