I ask becuase my +3 A-Arms are on the way and I will have to wait on brake lines for at least 2 weeks (wife,$$$), will stock reach so I can do some riding or will I be just looking at my quad up on a jack?

The brake lines will reach, but I'm talking about a straight line from the line mount at the frame to the brake assembly. The first time you hit a whoop or any kind of suspension movement will damage the line. The line needs slack to move up and down with the A'arms.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

That's cool, I'll get to see how it looks and not have to have it up on the jack while I sell my stock A-Arms and wheel spacers on e-bay.

When you come up with some $, get the Galfer braided lines for $99. They are great! I got red ones for my Rappy. Also get some billet brake line clamps from ATV4play. Alba sells the same things, but charges $10 more. They buy them from ATV4play and then resell them for a profit. Good luck and enjoy the great handling!!

Go ahead and install them. They will fit, and you can ride untill you can afford braided hoses.
