Thanks fellas. Pics to follow this week after the rear SS lines come in. Hope when I bleed the system I have no leaks and I'll be a happy camper.
What I meant by half off I was talking about the rear brake like kit (brakes don't come w the lines and fittings). The kit from summit is 106$. Twice as much as the front brake line kit and the lines are literally about the 1/3rd of the front lines, just two more adapters for the axle fittings, the fittings I posted above that are giving me the grey hairs. If I piece all the parts myself, kit comes out to about 60$. I did just that but ordered shorter lines. not sure if Wilwood built these line kits for the more popular truck versions of the gmt900, but just more opinion, it would need a little fine tuning to make it a perfect bolt on suv kit.
To recap, the front line kit should have came w 90* fittings behind the caliper vs the straight, and maybe slightly shorter lines. Overall it was ok to route and I wish it came w some kind of clips to secure the line in its way to the frame mount.
Rears should, as mentioned above, come w better "axle hard line to SS line better adapter fittings" and shorter SS lines. The lines have Possibility of a rub on the bump stop pad on the axle so I'll have to maybe wrap the line w some protector to make sure it doesn't wear.
Sorry for the long read. I just love brakes.
