87 R3500 brake line

I cant find a complete brake line kit for a 2wd 1 ton. All the kits I find are for 4x4 1 ton. Does anyone know if they are the same? Also would 3/4 ton be same as 1 tone?

Re: 87 R3500 brake line

I get the line in a roll from Advance Auto parts and the fittings and bend my own I find that so much easier than buying the straight ones... and its cheaper than buying the pre bent ones that never seem to have the right application but can fit

My recollection is that they are all different.

ie

2wd different from 4wd

3/4 ton different from 1 ton
