so i ordered these stainless steel brake lines from corksport and they've been sitting in my room for a month or so now while i was waiting for other parts to come in so i could have a mechanic put it all in at once. so i drop it off at the mechanic today. everything seems well. then i guess i didn't pay attention to the front lines or maybe thought they were supposed to look different but the mechanic calls me and tells me they dont fit at all but he'll put the back ones in. so i dont know what to do now. i dont have my receipt anymore and i'll be left with a pair of front brake lines which i dont know what car they fit? is there anyplace that sells front lines. i need some help on this please. also i found its going to cost me 100 dollers to have all new wheel bearings repacked in my front left wheel.

 

Is your FC a Base? If so you need the additional steel line found on the front brakes of the 5 lug HARD suspension cars

 

no mine is a SE.

 

And that's a...base model.

I didn't know anyone even made SS lines for a Base/Luxury/SE/ 4 lug FC model.

 

They dont, but if you have the short hardline from a "hard" ( 5 lug) suspension you can use them.

 

Even without the receipt, I would call the company and ask if they will exchange the wrong ones. They may, and if they don't what have you lost.

 

I got a set from Racing beat, or mazdatrix last summer that fit great with no issues. My brother ordered them though, i have an 87 base.

 

Say you got them for your B-day and you dont want to make your mom feel bad by telling her she screwed up and got the wrong ones.
