Just an addition for the "Replacement Extended Rubber Lines" article.
The extension line is 13" long. A stock 1991 F-350 line is 21.5" long. Once pieces together, the line is roughly 34" long. The F-350 and ranger lines use the same thread and mount to the caliper in the same way. It would be helpful if someone could also provide the length of a stock ranger line.
Since the rear brakes are also fed by a 3/16" brake line, the same extension line can be used to lengthen the rear line. I used this method, and I have enough brake line to support 6" skyjacker leafs and belltech shackles with quite a bit of length to spare.
I found that the article was really helpful, but it would have saved me time if I had known some of the lengths of different lines before I went to the parts store. The more that readers know, the easier it is to piece the appropriate lines together to make something that fits your application.
I can take pics if necessary.
