Who has Technafit SS brake lines?

I got a set of Techafit brake lines and the rear SS lines seem to be too short. Im just wondering for those of you that have them, did your rear lines seem really short? The ones I got are about 18 inches long which is probably 8 inches too short compared to the stock lines.

I bought them from a member here like 6 months ago and forgot who. He sold them to me as part of the 300zx/cobra BBK so I couldnt have swapped the front with the rears since the front were totally different. I also emailed technafit about this issue and they did send me another set stating that they will send the correct ones but they are exactly the same length.

Today I took my wheel off to examine things again and it seems like if I slightly pull the stock hard line closer then it will connect but I will have to eliminate the use of the clip thats holding the brake line to the solid rear axle and just run the SS line straight across.

The car was jacked up on the solid rear axle so there was no suspension sag. I think I can get these to work but if not Ill contact them again and get the "right" set.
