8 inch to 9 inch brake lines

[afeng79]

Does anyone know if the brake lines are identical whether hooking up to an 8 inch or a 9 inch or will the brake lines have to be modified if doing this swap....Found a 9 inch from a 71 mustang and am wanting to know what this swap will entail as far as brake lines go.

Brakes, backing plates, drums, 28 spline axles and brake lines are the same between 8" and 9" housings.

OK. Thanks guys. I had read something about the drums being bigger than what was on an 8 inch and some 14" rims won't fit. Not sure if there's any truth to that. Anyways, in case one needs new brake lines they sell pre-bent ones all over the place for our 71-73's for really cheap.
