That’s interesting, my dad just put a set from inline on his 72 K20 and they fit great. Do you still have the HO52 out back? His still has the Eaton. I know with my 14 bolt I’m going to have to get longer cables than what was used on the HO52.

I don't know how that happened. Inline uses factory specs. I may have been the first one to "persuade" them to break from tradition and make a pair of those and brake hoses for a '72 K/20 with 6" lift. I was told quite sternly that they do everything to factory spec. That didn't deter me. I asked why he couldn't do mine to factory spec, only to the length over that I specified. After a lot of grumbling and not able to come up with a good reason, other than they were mine whether they worked out or not, he went ahead and made per my measurements... and they worked out perfectly. I then brought my story here, sending others to them. Never heard a bad review.

Have you called them about it? If so, I'd think when you gave them what yours measure they would refer to their data to verify yours were made properly.
