Short bed and long bed difference???

I just ordered a brake line kit for a 95 f150 long bed, but I own a short bed. Does anyone know of any difference other than the length going from the front to rear? Also is there any difference with ABS and non ABS?

Thanks

no they should be exactly the same other than supports on the bed due to length

The one line going from the RABS back to the rear of the frame is about 16" (133wb vs 117wb) longer on the long bed. You may be able to bend a loop to compensate for the difference. All '95 F150's have rear ABS.

I will also say that all 95 F150s have RABS. I think the only thing you will have to worry about is the extra length in the line to the rear. Hopefully you can just put a loop in it.
