Can someone please answer me a question? Automotive brake lines are commonly available at several different lengths in each of the standard sizes (3/16", 1/4", and the metric stuff, etc.):
20"
30"
40"
51"
60"
So WHY is the "50" line a 51" line, and not 50 like the rest? Makes no sense to me. None of my parts suppliers can answer the question for me. Must be a reason...
Because a simple reason.....the owner of the company is the dude who measured it and who is going to tell him he was wrong so it has stayed that way forever.........
