From checking the parts on rock auto they left and right lines are different sizes. I couldn’t tell you why. I haven’t paid attention to what’s on my truck as it’s been so long ago that I replaced mine

Morning Guys Thanks for your response so the 3/16 brake line tube nut size 7/16 goes on the left side front and 3/16 line tube nut size 3/8 goes on the right side why did the factory do that would it effect the braking? Thanks again
