Default extended brake line help

Guys, just got done installing some extended front lines and I followed the write up on project jk. My confusion is how the brake line is oriented on the rotors. The picture shows something then the caption says something different. Can someone confirm the orientation of the lines on the rotor. I matched the same orientation as the stock ones. So the line comes rearward and inboard from the caliper. Any thoughts.

They go on just like the stock brake lines do.

The 6 inch hard metal L shape of the brake line attaches to the caliper. The short side of the L should be facing forward on the caliper and the long side of the L should be towards the rear. Basically if you take your tire off and looked at the drivers side brake line, it will look like an BACKWARDs "L"


The passenger side will be a normal "L"


It is hard to explain, but if you want PM Me with either your phone number or email and I will take pictures of mine andmeither text them or email them to you tomorrow.
