I'm still having an ongoing debate with inlinetube over the correct size of brake lines. The hard lines on my '58 3200 are 1/4". They insist the brake lines should be 3/16". It's funny, that the 3/16" lines don't fit the original brake hoses or replacement hoses. So that can't be right.

My question for you 55-59 owners is this. What size lines are on your truck? Could these differences be a long vs. short bed thing? The reason I ask is that I notice that front brake hoses for a long bed have a different part number than the short bed hoses. I'm just trying to get to the bottom of this so that I can get my darn lines. Any help would be appreciated.
