---I'm sorry, the braided stainless steel lines from Skyjacker are DOT 
approved. I normally say that, but don't want to sound like I am making a 
sales pitch. FWIW, if you can find DOT approved braided stainless steel 
lines, make sure you ask what the benefits are on them. Most braided 
stainless steel have a higher pressure rating and allow for more firm and 
steady braking power, and definitely find out whether they are DOT approved 
or not. Also, Back Country Binders used to carry braided stainless steel 
lines, shake John F.'s tree and see if they still offer them. I am sure they 
still do.
