we cut the bracket off the frame the one on the side of the a-arm that holds the main brake line into the caliper that way they just hang.

PM Captain Nasty on here. He ordered some Stainless steel lines that were longer and I put them on his car when I built it. Not sure where he got them though.

any 'industrial' hydro hose place will knock you up a line to the correct length you want, disconnect your existing line from either the caliper or the hardline union and lift the car fully then measure the gap it creates.

Take your existing line to the hydro place and say "i need two of these but XXcm long, in stainless"

They'll ask what its for so you get the correct pressure rating.
