Front to Rear Brake Line, 3/16 ok?

Hey Guys,

I just ran my new brake line from the rear of the truck to the front. With out even really thinking about I ran 3/16 line, since I am running disc brakes in the rear I got to thinking, should I have ran larger line like 1/4? Hopefully the 3/16 will be fine so I didn't waste all that line and time

Thanks!

yep 3/16 will be fine...i ran the local dirt tracks for 25 plus years and used 3/16 all around and the wilwood 4 wheel discs worked great, never had a problem
