Default being a cheapass, rear dana 44 swap=8.25 rear brake hose

Ok I know I'm being a cheap *** but I just replaced the rear brake hose on my 8.25 just a month ago. I'm now swapping in a Dana 44 from a XJ wagoneer and just wondering if I need another new hose or could I just use the new one on my 8.25?

Thanks you for contributing to my thread The reason I ask is I just put a brand new one on less then a month ago.I'm being a tight wad on it because other then the 8.25 slowly eating itself to death, I have to fix the trans mount, both leaf springs, both front axle shafts,front drive shaft is rusted solid, replace drivers floor pan, fix the rest of the rust. I figured someone might of done tried it and could give me a report.

Dont like my question well.................tough. At least I didn't ask how to trim my fenders, is garden edging proper fender flares, can I fit 33's with a 2 inch lift, or my Cherokee won't start (no other info).
So thanks again
