Last two posts are spot on, I too got some Droman junk and sent them back , not even close. I took the to a hydraulic shop and they cut the crimps off and used my old lines with new hose and clamps , charged me like 57.00. NEVER BUY THE DORMAN LINES!!!!! One of the lines had a worn...
Guys, around here scrap yards are only paying 20$ a ton prepared (4ft or smaller). Its not worth the gas to cut one up!!! I Bet its along a trail somewhere, Hope the find the scum that did it.
