was looking for front hoses and not sure on who to go with but i came across these guys

http://www.brakeco.com/Hose.htm

and they sent me an email back but not quite sure what they mean.

We don't show a pattern for these. Looking at the OE hoses they have a bent fitting on the banjo side of both fronts. I believe we could make up a universal set with the same ends but no special bends, if you think you can control the routing.

Both fronts and the one rear would be $110 shipped. These would be special order so they would not be returnable.

has anyone tried them or know what they are talking about?

No idea because there are no banjo fittings at all on the brake booster line.

i thought the same thing damian, quick question for you or anyone on here that may know. I ordered a set of wilwoods for the front, http://www.wilwood.com/BrakeKits/BrakeKitsProdFront.aspx?itemno=140-12097-R and wilwoods tech support said any of the 4 links at the bottom (referring to the brake line sets on that page) would fit our truck as long as your running their calipers. can someone click on any of the 4 brake lines on that page and verify that they will fit? I don't see how they would work. I'm definitely interested in higher quality brake lines for our trucks

thank you, but i looked up the russell's but couldn't find anything under application for a '92 awd so i gave up. yours is a '91 so it shows the right application.
i just didn't want to order the wrong parts and be stuck with them.

I have the same kit on my 92 Typhoon. Installed them along with the ABS delete kit I got. They fit perfectly and look nice. Can also confirm they work since I had to do a 4 wheel lock up the other week thanks to a driver on her cell phone running a red light. :roll:

Im sorry, I have no idea what the hell I was smoking when I read yo7r first post, I really don't. I had brake booster line in my head and that doesn't have any banjo bolts. The actual brake lines do for the front. The rear does have that distribution block though. I searched through my eBay account to find a link to the ones I bought but I can only see back to 2013. There is a Russell kit you can use, but I'll try and find the kit that I got. Sorry about the confusion. As far as those 4 links, they are only for the fronts, I'd replace the rear piece as well while you're at it. You have to bleed the whole system anyways. Just hope your rear distribution block comes out a lot easier than mine did, mine was a nightmare.
