Default Front Brake Lines

Hey everybody,

I got my disco's in the mail today, got them installed and went and flexed it out. I was able to completely stuff the tires, and actually didn't have much rubbing, BUT, I realized that I had better not be going anywhere far from home and doing this before I get some sort of new front brake lines. What are the options available to remedy this problem? I've seen the stainless sets that can be had, but is there a cheaper, but still adequate way of doing it? Thanks!

Get YJ fronts. They are 3" longer than XJ fronts.

Carefully take the bends out of the line and move the mounting tab. That will get you by until you can get the right stuff.
