Re: Longer brake hoses

Lowering should not require longer brake hoses. I've done close to 20 trucks personally over the years & never needed longer hoses (for disc equipped years or swaps).

The hard line from the banjo fitting @ the caliper requires tweaking to ensure the hose doesn't contact any metal & it's easily done w/a heavy screwdriver or small pry bar. When prying, work slowly as it's easy to kink or pinch the tubing if you're 'heavy handed' w/it.

Please post a pic of this issue.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
