flexible brake line

Was wondering what flexible brake line people run from the diff to the fixed mount. I have a HR diff in an EK ute and all the lines I have seem to short to fit. Also the mount on the diff is in line with the shock, any help would be great

Re: Roof lining bows

Does anyone have a photo of the listing wire that's referred to. Looked in the manual and there's no mention of them. May have to try and make something to do the job, Thanks

Red motor

I was wondering if anyone with a red motor could give me the distance from the rear of the tappet cover to the firewall. My mounts seem to be at the rear of the crossmember and still haven't much room at the radiator end. I have sorted out the wiper motor but may have to rethink my mounts for the en...
