Are the 6.9 and 7.3 IDI hard lines the same or are they different lengths? I’ve read that they have something to do with timing and the set I got which was for the truck version of the 6.9, some of them were the wrong length and barely fit to the point I can’t get the anti vibration clamps back...

This is a 6.9 IDI out of my 1985 F250. I swapped in the ZF and transfer case, ZF originally out of an F450 Super Duty, had a parking brake on it so I switched it out for the Borg Warner 1356 transfer case. Come to think of it, I could also sell the trans with the driveline brake in place of the...
