Hope I'll be forgiven for not searching, but I'm about to go off and do something else....
My son's 96 (4.0, 5 speed, no ABS) has bust the main front-to-rear brake line, and I'd like to help him get it back together. Ordinarily I'd get under with my double flare tool and splice in a piece, but he's 70 miles away, it's down in the single digits cold, and his Jeep is outdoors in the snow, so I'm trying to minimize the time taken rolling around in freezing slush. So, I though I'd just buy the whole line from Jeep, but they don't stock it any more, it seems. Does anybody here have a reasonably accurate measurement for the length of the whole line? I.E. from proportioning valve back to rear axle rubber line. If I get within a few inches we can piece together a line out of three or so lengths with unions.
