I haven’t.

I used Inline Tube for all of my flexible lines.
I thought their prices were reasonable.

They sell on their own site as well as Flea Bay.
Just pay attention on listings as pair or each.

I found “kits” that fit my needs under GM and Jeep.
I have 2016 Mustang GT brakes front and rear.

I have straight hoses with as needed ends.

Following. I need to make brake lines and hydroboost/power steering lines.

I did use the braided PTFE lines and reusable AN fittings for the old Borgeson power steering setup I had on my Mustang. I had limited miles on that setup before I replaced it with the EPAS steering, but I did not see any signs of leakage when I removed the hoses.  The power steering hydraulic pressure is lower than the braking hydraulic pressure so I am questioning that. The reason I was considering them was that I had some custom hoses made for my rear brake setup with the crimped fittiings but I don't really like the way they fit. I think I can do better.

I also see that they make those reusable AN fittings for the AC hoses too. That would make my life easier when I get to connecting up my compressor setup.
 

I my old brain is working, I seem to recall that I made up the front brake lines...braided stainless...on my Model A Speedster from stuff I bought at the original Earl's Supply in Bell Gardens, CA.  That was in '72 and, according to my pix, it looks like they were still on there when I saw the car in '18.

Well Bob you sure brought back some memories with that reference. I grew up in Bell Gardens in the 50s and 60s. Went to Earls numerous times with my older brother. 

I think you got out just in time.  I was in Maywood in the early 70's and it  was better than BG...but it wasn't good.   I loved Earl's.  They had rows of small barrels of every kind of fastener or fitting you could think of...by the pound IIRC.  I see they are in Lawndale now, prolly new mgt.
