I'll measure the lines tomorrow. I think they are 3/8" to AN-3 adapters on one end, but I'm not sure waht size the banjo fitting is. I'll check tomorrow and post.
Sorry about hte delay. I've been so freaking busy lately. I'm graduating from college for the second time (glutton for punishment), and I have finals right now.
I finally dropped the X of to get hte winchplate and winch installed. (pics later today)
I hope to get the brake lines installed later this week, and then I'll install the shackles and twist some T-bars. (pics to follow)
I haven't measured the lines yet, but I'll do that tonight and let you know (thelines are in the X, so I can't do it now). I do apologize about not getting back to you sooner, I simply forgot about it. I'll PM you when I finally do get it.
OK. THe brake lines are a 3/8" to AN adapter. Pretty sure it's AN -3, but I guess either size would work as long as you kept it constant throughout. Then the brake hose itself, and then the banjo fitting, which I also believe is a 3/8" size. The only other size near it is the 10mm banjo, but I doubt its that size.
For the rear, I'm going to be ordering these parts:
3/8" female to AN -4 adapter (from hardline on frame to hose)
30" AN -4 brake hose w/ 90 degree fitting on one end (from frame adapter to T fitting on axle)
3/8" T fitting to AN -3 (T fitting on axle to split L and R sides)
3/8" male to AN -4 adapter (to attach hose to T fitting)
12" AN -3 hose (for driver's side, T fitting to caliper)
XX" AN -3 hose (for passenger side T fitting to caliper, not sure of exact length, since it has to reach all the way across the axle, probaly about 42")
(x2) 3/8" banjo fittings (to attach hose to caliper, of course!)
Nope, none of the lights are really aimed very well. None of hte lights are even connected right now! Had to take them off to paint the bumper and never hooked them back up.

Doc: love the ex... You should have kept your broken fender on... then it wouldn't have mattered if you hit something on the trail =P Did the shop end up paying for a new one?
