Front Stainless Steel Brake Lines too long...

[PATR1NYC]

bought it from the ebay vendor from Canada last month=finally had the chance to install it-and the fronts were to damn long-prob by 5-6 inches!! If i installed them-it would've been rubbing on the front tires.

anyone else have a fix for this?

ive notified the vendor and they said to measure the lines compared to the stock ones and take pics this and that-which at this moment im just too busy to do

I would just return them if possible and seek out another company or brand with the proper length. Or if you don't want to return the originals, you can sell them to someone with a lifted truck.

yea-i figured that too-thats most likely will be my last resort if no one has a fix for it...


wanna buy it?

Haha, sorry dude! I would buy them from you, but my truck is bone stock, thus I am at factory ride height. I want to lift my truck but it will be a while before I do.

Another option would be to install them anyways and fabricate some sort of hanger which allows enough slack to move but also keep it out of the way. It's not impossible to shorten it either with the right tools and some patience, but I personally would not want to screw up and lose money on perfectly good lines.
