New brake lines for disc brake swap question

Hey guys, sorry if this is a dumb question but its been a long time since I have worked on a car.

I am doing the Swap 1 from CSRP on a 68 mustang (V8, Standard) and everything seems straightforward except for the brake lines, the instructions say 're-fabricate,' which isn't very helpful to someone new to this like me.

Is this a good option to just completely replace my brake lines?

Or does anyone else have any suggestions?

If I understand you correctly you are going from drum to disk. If so you will have to shorten your brake line. I went ahead and bought a new stainless steal line sine my factory was rusted. None of the shops really new the answer for me so I went to the source and called right stuff which is the manufacture that cj pony, jegs etc uses. Call 800 405-2000 and they can ship you a line that you do not have to modify for $35

I replaced all the lines on my 66 when I made the swap to disc just for the peace of mind but I bent all mine myself
