extended front brake lines for lifted 97 F250....

Lifted my F250 6" and need to know if anyone knows a source where to get factory style front left (driver side ) brake hose? Ordered a pair from 4 wheel parts and the driver side is not going to work unless I make a whole bunch of changes. I swapped in a Dana 60 at the same time from a 89.

ordered a set from skyjacker. Pass side is fine. Driver side not even close. on the 97 driver side the line from the master comes down and goes into the brake line, into the same brake line you have the line that goes across to the pass side. Then the hose that goes to the drive side caliper. the hose that goes to the drive side caliper has a block integral that the master line and pass side steel line all go into. i would have to make major mods to my stock stuff to make the skyjacker line even work. Crown doesnt have a listing for anything earlier then 99.

That is odd. I have a pair of crown lines on my 97 and they fit just like factory.

Give them call and see what they say
