Just long enough to fit in the trash can. Unless yours is a dedicated track car, the reliability and safety of SS lines id REALLY questioable. It's recommended they be inspected often, and replaced about every 2 years. The failure mode, and they DO fail (I've personally seen at least 3 failures), is sudden and total loss of braking. You sure you want to buy into that? The Cap'n

I have a set (I believe from a late model beetle) that I want to put on my car to further diagnose a braking problem, anyone have the lenght of the front and back SS hoses. From my understanding they are a bit longer then the standard rubber hoses.
Thanks,
Dan
