QUESTION: i need to know if the brake line come in sections or if it is one long piece from the engine to the rear

Answer
You may have to use more than one line as I don't think you can buy a line long enough. Some cities have hydraulic supply shops that might be able to make you one, but installing it in one piece might be next to impossible.

If you piece one together, be sure to use compression fittings to attach them as brakes are a critical part of your Explorer.
