Earl's SS brake lines for stock calipers... need help!

[Emperor]

I ordered these (http://www.jspec.com/earlss13s14.html) stainless steel brake lines from jspec.com along with brembo rotors and PBR pads all around. Went for a full package, jspec hooked me up, good deal. Problem is the brake lines I got (same as in picture) do not seem long enough to fit. The rear seem fine, but the front are about half the length as stock. I measured it out and it seems like they will fit.... but its tight and it wouldnt go through the spring clip in the shock, just straight across. All other kits seem to be same length as stock, these dont. Basically I dont want to start getting into bleeding fluid and swapping lines if the ones I have are not going to work. Help me out!

I also contacted jspec about it, and they were really bland in their reply, basically just said make sure you use correct cables for front and rear. Their is an end with a circle on the shorter cable, im guessing that is for the rear since it is shorter.

Any help will be much appretatiated.

Interesting, there is no nut in the middle of that brake line. IMO, I think you may have gotten screwed on this. How much did you pay for it? Goodrich SS brake lines work pretty well. Got mine from http://www.importrp.com

I agree.....

I think that they may have screwed you or sent you two sets of rear lines? I got Russel lines a while ago and they were the same length as the stock rubber lines, so you might want to be a little more forceful with your next e-mail to them.

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the help. If anyone else has any info please let me know....
