Highboy brake lines

I am looking for a set of brake lines for my 73 Highboy but i cant seem to find any. They are all for either a 2 wheel drive or other years. Is there any places that you guys know of that sell them for the highboy or maybe of another set that fits, I want to get my roject done, mudding season is coming fast. Thanks

I replaced most of the steel brake lines on an old ****** 6 years ago. Most of the pieces were first quality but one piece was an imported (cheaper) 3 foot length. I had to replace the imported piece due to corrosion recently. So Highboy 390fe, learn from my mistake, use only top quality steel lines. Happy bending...

If you're picky, i found complete pre-bent stainless brake line kits for the highboy at two different places. I think one of them was inlinetube.com and the other was classictube.com. Otherwise, the soft lines are usually available at a good parts store, and just buy stock lengths and bend you own for the others. I was able to find all of the soft lines, including the one at the rear axle.
