    Hey guys I am going to order new prebent brake lines today but I noticed there are diffrent sets for power brake and non power brake jeeps. I am wanting to keep my front and rear drums for now beacause they are freshly rebuilt but swap in a brake booster and new master cylinder like one of the kits seen here

    So my question whats the diffrence between the brake lines for power and non power brake equiped jeeps? and which should I order? Thanks guys

    When I went with power brakes I used a master cylinder and booster out of an 81. The fittings are on the fender side of the MC and different size fittings. I was able to make up a couple of short lines to make the switch.
