Brake caliper banjo bolts

[cross]

I took my brakes apart today for rebuild and steel braided line upgrade.
I'm comparing banjo bolt sizes. The original ones are about .6" longer than the ones that came with the kit, otherwise the diameter and threads are the same.
Should I reuse old ones? Does it matter?
Thanks

Sasha, the last set of stainless lines i got from Apex had the same short banjo bolts.
I was skeptical so i contacted Apex and they confirmed they were "proper".
Figuring the washers would also crush slightly i used them and have had no problems.

Thank you very much!

I had the same issue with my Cormoto brake kit and almost made the mistake of using the old bolts with the new lines.
If you were to use the old bolts with the new lines the oil passages won't line up.

Thanks, I have to order longer hose for the front MC to the splitter.
The kit I have is I'm guessing for European models with sport kit, lower handle bars so it's short.
Once I have everything I'll put things back together and will post the results
Thanks
