Spiegler 100% stainless brake lines for various Porsche models. Front 4 Line Kit that replaces the OEM caliper hard line and increases line length for easier pad changes. Allows for caliper removal without opening hydraulic connection or removing the bracket attached to the spindle.

Why Replace the OEM Hard Lines?

As any owner will tell you, swapping pads or changing discs on these cars can be a real headache, because the front brake calipers are attached via hard, inflexible OEM brake lines. The lines are rigid, shouldn't be bent repeatedly, and don't allow the front caliper to be set aside easily. Our kit replaces all the factory soft lines with braided stainless hoses, including these inconvenient hard lines.

What if I'm Running Studs Instead of Factory Caliper Bolts?

Our lines were intentionally designed with aftermarket caliper studs in mind. We added enough length front and rear to allow the caliper to be lifted off the studs without having to break the hydraulic connection, or even unbolt the brake line from the brake line bracket. No more fuss and mess every time you want to swap pads!

Why Spiegler, and not Brand X?

While we're not the first to create a kit that replaces the OEM hard lines, we have created the best one. Many of our Porsche customers haven't been thrilled with the quality of currently available aftermarket options, and have repeatedly asked us to produce a premium quality, complete and convenient brake line set. We went back to the drawing board, and this product is the result.

The quality of the Spiegler components is a cut above the competition in all regards, and you can see the superior precision of the components in the pics below. Spiegler uses 100% stainless steel fittings machined from billet, and all fittings are attached with Spiegler's exclusive stress-free torsion system. That means the lines can be twisted or turned up to 360 degrees (after they've been attached, without placing any stress on the line or fitting. The components for Spiegler lines are imported from Switzerland, and the lines are assembled and tested in Dayton Ohio. The result is a brake line of unparalleled strength, durability, and reliability. For less than the price of a set of brake pads you can have the added convenience, feel, and confidence that Essex and Spiegler bring to the table.

In the pics below, the Spiegler lines are gray and the competitor's lines are black. Note the precision and hard edges on Spiegler's fittings and threads, as well as the torsion fittings that allow the line to be rotated up to 360 degrees without stress.

INSTALLATION

Something to keep in mind during install is that unlike just about all other brake lines, Spiegler's unique fittings are adjustable. That means no twisting or tension in the line, and you can maneuver them as needed when installing them. We created the GIF's below to show how the fittings work. The easiest way to twist them is to use the little blue plastic blocks (included with your line kit) and a pair of pliers. Then you can rotate the lines up to 360 degrees to point the fitting where you need it to go, untwist the line, etc.

Below are some install pics that show which lines our kit replaces.
