brakes lines regarding the 4pot

Out of curiosity is there suppose to be a hard line on the caliper on the 4pot system. I never really paid attention it. I notice i have a hard pipe then into a SS line into another hardline on the chassis.

Yes. sounds like your system is stock (except for the SS line).

Yes you can swap the hard lines to caliper with s.s. hoses but I don't see any reason why since the caliper is not a floating caliper.

Sure.
That's what I would do if I was starting from scratch...I think the SS replacement lines for the single piston calipers will work without the hardlines.
