IRS shouldnt make a difference in length as the brakes are effectively in the same position. I stand corrected on this though.
70 seems a touch on the long side?

Ah I have the short ones on the front and the Long on the back.. What is the correct way round?. My front ones turn from lock to lock and barely snag
on anything... the long ones at the back can be hidden up so wont look bad as if the were on the front and then trying to loose the slack.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
