front brake lines

1979 F-150 supercab 400 4X4
I bought some braided ss lines for my truck and on this particular year, they only have a single line for the front. How do i run the new hard lines and what do i use for brake lines on the steering axle?

They might have sold you the wrong ones. Where did you get the part and what is the part number?

It seems, they sold you the brake line from the axle to the caliper
