Exclamation Another Brake line question

I have a 72 SWB C10 2wd that has been bagged and Im in need of longer front and rear brake hoses so I searched online and found a 4x4 website that sells brake hoses that fits a 72 K10 with a 2-6in lift so I figured if it's long enough for that it should be long enough to let mine cycle up and down but I just don't know if a k10 hoses will work? Any help would be nice im in need of them to finish up my brake system. Thanks for looking and for the help...

Re: Another Brake line question

I am dropping mine shortly and wanted "all" of the stuff to do it on a weekend. I ran down to the local parts store and grabbed several lengths of hard line with fittings on each end and then went through their book of brake hoses looking at the GM ones. Wrote the part numbers down and then found the boxes behind the counter, pulled a couple that I thought would work, some brass brake T's and female/female splices. I should have enough parts and pieces to do what ever I need with the notch and drop.
It doesn't specifically answer your question, but is an alternate solution if no one chimes in with a part number for you.
I got longer fronts from Borris aka way2lo2 here on the board.

Re: Another Brake line question

4x4 models will work on 2WDs, they are usually longer which would benefit you with a drop.
When I replaced my lines on my '83 static dropped with spindles and coil cut, I went with K10 braided lines because the 2WD lines were too short.
