 We have several bluebird busses from years 1993 through 2002....we are continually breaking the rear brake lines, having replaced up to 6 lines on some buses with under 100,000 miles. when they break all fluid is pumped from the lines there by losing all braking. these busses are built on a chevrolet chassis...have approached chevrolet before with no help...someone is going to get hurt or worse with this design.*jb
