70 4X4 swb disk front end swap, brake lines?

hey guys, on my 70 swb 4x4 i have i swapped in a front axle from a later 70s truck with disks. i then put a 71-71 master cylinder,booster,prop valve on it. what can i do for brake lines as they are different?, can i just splice in and flare them in? or get lines for a 71-72 4x4 from inline tube. thanks!!

Matt

i ran the same line when i just did this same thing.. i used brass adaptors at the the frame to attach the flex hose...it was aggravating at first but it eventually worked out.. i bought flw/rubber lines to match the calipers and then adaptors to mate the flex line to the trucks hard line...scott
