I have run the numbers on the calipers and on my new front axle, the front axle is off of an 85 4wd K20, but the calipers are apparently from a 72-78 2wd front axle, I need lines that are almost 24" long, I would rather not swap in calipers, I have already spent way to much on this swap.....any advice or parts numbers would be appreciated, will the 2wd lines work, how long are they, and what size is the fitting that attached to the hard lines?

Also, does anyone have any idea why someone might make this swap?
