Driver front hard line length

Does anyone know the length of the hard line from the union on the passenger fender to the driver front caliper? I snapped the flare off of it when I was trying to replace the flex line this past weekend.

I've already replaced the hard line from the union on the pumpkin to wheel cylinders on the rear axle with off-the-shelf stuff. The line to the rear union seems to be in decent shape and is already buttoned back up so I know I won't break it in the immediate future. So, I'd prefer not to buy a kit, but to make something with off-the-shelf line for the front brakes. Passenger front is short enough that I am not too concerned with it; I am confident I can find a long enough line on the rack.

Just trying to pinch every penny I can!

Thanks!
 
Kevin..... it is 50" with a male 7/16 at the PWDA valve and female 3/8 at the flex hose end. 3/16 line.

Thanks Peter!

By the way - I called you a week or so ago regarding new kingpin bushings. I placed the order last night, so I'll let you know when they are in and we can set something up for you to press and size them in the spindles.

Thanks for the info!
