I thought we went through this last week.

just be sure to tell us where you live, cause I don't want to be any where near ya when have to do a power stop.

1st- off, if you get into an accident & the law finds out, you'll be in deep doo-doo and may spend some time in jail.

2nd- your not only putting your own life at risk, BUT everyone elses too & anyone who is crazy enuff to ride w/you.

3rd- if your that damn cheap to repair your truck correctly, then you shouldn't be driving it.....

remember SAFETY FIRST

If you have to go through a state safety inspection, it will fail if the inspector sees it. Just go to the parts store and buy the length of tubing that you will need. Also remember that the flares on the ends if you need to redo them for any reason need to be double flares, it takes a special tool, but it will pay for itself in the long run.
