Front brake hoses too short for 2.5" drop spindles?
71/72 front suspension with 71/72 style (ball joint) 2.5" drop disc brake spindles from ECE.
The truck currently has +/-13" long front brake hoses. With the spindles dropped down the hose now wants to "rest" against the upper ball joint threads (on the bottom side) Not something I see going very well over time with suspension movement and turns. I could also just barely get the calipers back on without stretching the hose. Does anyone make a longer 14-15" brake hose for these trucks? You have to order just about everything now a days and i want to get this right without having to order hoses 5 different times. Thanks!
