It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

Ok, I'm doing a five lug swap and using a lot of parts I purchased from a gentleman locally. I got spindles, PBR twin piston front calipers, rear calipers, brackets, the works... except hoses that mate properly to the calipers. My fox hoses aren't going to make up without major modification- and that makes me uneasy. Can I just get a 99 up style hose and use an adapter to make up the threads to the hard line? That would be metric to standard on the threads, right? If not, What? Any direction would be greatly appreciated!

..or anybody?
Thanks!

Dorman part # 327828 at adanced auto or autozone. Just need one, for the passenger side. It's equivalent to a weatherhead 7828 fitting.


You need to use SN95 lines, and 99-04 lines are the best to use. Can be had at parts stores or rockauto.com pretty cheap. Make sure you have the correct banjo bolts as well as you cannot use the fox bolts and the SN95 calipers used both fine and coarse pitch bolts depending on the year of manufacture
