Bralke lines rusted out.

Am out in the middle of nowhere camping - got rusted out brake lines, just failed and can't get a pedal. No tools, no place to work. Need to have it towed and repaired.

How much should it cost for all new lines installed at repair shop - front and rear pads are fine.

I had this happen while my wife was driving, rusted out right at the rear driver wheel well. I was able to buy stock 1/4 in brake line for about 30 bucks and reran the entire line. I know you asked how much it would cost at a repair shop, but when I took my truck to one they actually refused to do the work.

Somewhere around $500 would be a good guess. They need to pull the old line and make up a new one then bleed all of the brakes. Most of it is labor . When they are in there ask them to see how the fuel lines are. They will be the next to go. Good luck
