Question new blazer with problems

Hi I got a 1995 Chevy blazer ls four door and my brakes went out on me yesterday while I was driving. I managed to E-brake it into a ditch with no damage but now I need a new brake line and some tools to install it with so does anyone know a decently quick way to get that done and not have to take it into a shop to fix it later. I have a tight budget and no room for error.
Thank You.

Use the Nickle - Copper lines here : Coiled Tubing Archives - AGS Company AGS Company They have all the fittings you need too. It is easier to bend than steel lines and has better corrosion protection. You may be able to bend by hand, I used a borrowed flaring tool , tubing bender and duplicated the one I removed.

Good information right there. That's one of the first things I want to replace on mine. Had a brake line give on me on the GSP at 70 MPH. NOT GOOD!!! (In a different vehicle)
