Stock hoses too short for PBRs

[strykr14]

This car is fighting me every step of the way. I got the (non cobra) PBRs on and now my new hoses are too short. This is killing me. I had hoped to bleed tomorrow but I'm dead in the water.

What will work besides fancy aftermarket lines that I have to order and wait 4 days to get here? Will stock Mustang lines be long enough? Will they bolt to the hard lines?

u sure u have the right calipers on the right sides of the car? the bleeder should be pointing up

You need to get something that is the correct length. Pull the PBR's if the hoses don't fit until you can get some that do. Look for some braided lines, look at the install tips, and enjoy better brakes. Don't try to reinvent the wheel with the hoses. put the stockers back on until you have everything you need.

Stock 94-95 SHO hoses work fine, I would presume the earlier ones are the same. And to reitterate, Bleeders pointing up. Mustang right = SHO left, and so forth.

ok, well, Here's the deal. I tried the p-side first, bleeder up and I could have bolted it up but the hose was stretched more than I liked withh the wheels pointed to the lft and the car on jacks. Solution, Take the hose/line off the mount point on the fender and zip tie it to the strut. On the drivers side I had a bigger problem, The hole in the hose block (part that the copper washers attach to) is off center and would not bolt on. I had about 1/8 shaved off the side of that block, now I'm good. I will go w/the stainless steal route but for now I need to get this damn car on the road and ready for storage - Uncle sam is sending me to Europe so I need to tie up the loose ends on this car.

I got stock 92 hoses - don't know if they're different then 94-95's
Edit - according to Autozone, 92 hoses have the same P/N as 94's. I can't see how anyone would be able to hook these up w/o modification.
