    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I am going to be ordering new stainless line, and I was just wondering how you guys figured out your lengths?
 
Measuring tape:)

Actually the easiest method is to pull off the old ones and measure them. Give them the measurements to the ferrule i.e. the nut connecting to the fitting and overall length. maybe add and inch or two just to be sure.

As they say in all measuring situations, do it at least twice and for good measure have someone check.

You're going to love those puppies:D

If you are buying the goodridge brand that Z1 sells, measure the overall length of the line with the fittings and subtract 3", that is the length line you need to order. The swivel fittings that they sell make it really easy to install the lines and you can adjust the angle of the fitting so the lines don't twist.
