Default XJ Hard Brake Lines

Hey all, I have searched around with no luck. I am trying to find the approx. stock sizes of the hard brake lines. I have found that NAPA sells straight bendable lengths in different sizes with fittings already attached. My goal is to buy the approx lengths needed to replace all of the hard lines. Has anyone done this or taken past measurements of our brake lines? All help is appreciated.

The line is 3/16th. If you know how to flare the line it's cheaper to just buy a roll of 25ft.

Also i have found autozone has pre fitted lines that only need appropriate bending but it says for the 3/16" line that the union type is 3/8"-24. Is this compatible with our stock setup? Mind you i will be running these new lines from the master cylinder to the appropriate brakes for all 4 corners.

Yes that is correct. If you are running all new get a roll of line and do it the better way. So that you eliminate possible leaks from all the connections.
