Default 1ltr Front Brake Hoses Or VTR Front Brake Hoses?

Hi guys,

As some of you guys are aware, I have been putting 1998 VTR stuff on a 1998 1ltr for my son. Basically everything is swapped over. I had to cut the front brake hoses on both cars as the hoses wouldnt spin when trying to undo them, so need new ones, the thing is, are both hoses for both cars of that year the same, or will I need either the 1ltr or VTR hoses to allow fitment, as the front legs and hubs are VTR, but where the hoses join to the car the 1ltr.
Thanks. :-)

No ABS on either if that makes any difference?

As said for most of the range they are the same

It's an ideal time to upgrade to braided lines and do the job properly
