yup, i got the exact same pair for my 85 gsl, they also fit when i switched to a gsl-se suspension and brakes.

great lines, all the fittings are good, and the braket holders are nice too.

make sure you bleed your brakes. then bleed again and again. it took me awhile by myself.

you get a nice firm pedal, recommend

Carl.

p.s. if you get them, start spraying PB blaster on ALL the brake line fittings currently installed, dont forget the distrobution block on the rear axel and the line above the fuel filter! i did, took me a whole day to get it off. god bless vice grips.
