I am away from the car body at the moment and I have the suspension with me (in the living room of course)!
I am installing new hard brake lines on the front struts. Regarding the stainless brake lines to connect the stut hard lines to the body hard lines... I have two lenghts. Which one goes up front? The longer one or the shorter one? Thanks in advance! |

You are going to be pissed when they dont work. This is one case where the answer doesnt make sense. The rears are longer than the fronts. They have farther to REACH before they hit the tab on the frame rail. The fronts are within a inch or so of the mouting tab on the body. Think of the distance from tab to strut for the front and from tab to control arm mount.
