Upgrading Brake system and lines

I need some help, I have An 88 4 lug SE, I am upgrading it system by system and I am doing the 4 lug to 5 lug conversion, with the upgraded 4 piston calipers, anyway I am about to order the Goodridge SS brake lines and noticed that there are two types, one with the sport suspension, which wasn’t available on the SE and ones with out. So basically what is the difference? I mean I don’t have the sport suspension so I should get the ones that are for models w/ rear disc & solid rear axle. But if I were to upgrade to sport suspension, would it make a difference? Thanks for the help in advance I am just confused as to what is the difference between these two sets of lines…

I think they are trying to determine which calipers you have. I think they associate the 4 piston calipers with the sport suspension. So I think those would be the ones to get. There were only two brake systems ever offered on the FC, the 4 piston front brakes and the other... non 4 piston system. What are they? 1 piston?
I don't know what you're looking at that is mentioning a solid rear axle, but you do not have one. So you should double check what you're ordering. Maybe call who ever you are ordering them from and ask them.
Good luck
