    Hey guys,
    I am starting some of the yearly inspections & MTX on my '97 Taco. Am currently shopping for a set of front and rear SS braided brake lines manufactured by Crown. Stock length brake lines will work up front but don't know how long the stock rear brake line was. It was replaced a couple decades ago. The rear brake line on the Taco now is approx. 18" long. Marlin sells SS lines in stock length, +3", and +6". Problem is they don't give an actual length on their rear brake line in any of the sets as a basis. If anyone has purchased a set of SS braided brake lines from Marlin, I would appreciate them taking an approx. measurement of their rear brake line along with what length brake line set they used. TIA!

    I finally received a set of Marlin Crawler +3" braided SS brake lines manufactured by Crown for my '97 V6 Taco 4x4. The OAL measurements are below:

    OEM rear brake line : 15.5"
    Marlin/Crown +3" --: 21.5" (+6" over OEM)

    OEM front brake line: 22.7"
    Marlin/Crown +3" --: 25.7" (+3" over OEM)

    Merry Christmas!

    +6" for the rear if my math is correct.
