Bagged trucks and longer rubber brake hoses,...
Now that the front of my blazer is on bags,... the front rubber brake lines are a little too short.
At full dump they are stretched "tighter than a fiddle string"! I don't think the 73-87 guys have this problem. Can I use a factory OEM hose that is longer? (any part numbers?) TXfirefirghter posted that the 3/4 ton 71-72 hose is 1 inch longer, (and about $20 each higher priced) I'm thinking it might be cheaper to switch to 73 calipers and hoses,... but I don't know if they fit my 71-72 spindles OR if the 73 rubber line will bolt up to the 71-72 steel hard line. Any suggestions?

I could run them,... I just need an excuse to use them on a disc brake conversion on the '69,... and get new ones for the blazer .

Or you could get a stainless braided set from speedway.
