Extended brake line kits are around, often in the $100 (and above) range. These are mail order from vendors, Duff and others.
That doesn't help us if somebody pops/breaks a line out in the world... plus who wants to buy two or three lines to get one?
I hear that some folks use F250 lines, and that interests me. Often cheaper and available at local parts houses. Availability is top priority.
After searching umpteen threads and other places, I ended up at NAPA Online.
It tells me that my stock LF brake line is 21".
It shows most all SD F250 front lines at comparable length except PN 381185 (25", but wrong "source" ends, drivers side especially)
So.... who's using what kind of lines?
Do I recall something about XJ or YJ Jeep lines?
The MAIN target is off-shelf availability, second is building "on the cheap".
Can we get this worked out to "sticky thread" grade information?
TIA!
