Didn't it come with new lines (assuming you bought a kit)?

i didnt buy a kit my friend had a wreck at his place so i got the calipers and rotors before they scrapped the car i thought it was a direct bolt up, but looking at the kits ive seen here none of them showed the lines

Why not just switch the lines over? Mine bolted up directly. Trimming the back dust shields, replacing the front shields and bleeding the brakes takes the most time. Good luck bro!

yea they bolted directly up i thought the stock lines worked with them thats why i had a problem, but i didnt change any dust shields ill have to check that. i called riverside to see what parts off the 37 i needed but they didnt want to help me so i ordered a bunch of lines from my dealer getting overnighted from cali... thanks i need my baby back i miss driving it already
