Question Brake Line Picture or info needed

i just picked up this 97 4.6 4x4 lariet real cheap, the older gentleman lost his pedal and just started throwing parts at it new wheel cylinders, shoes, front to rear lines lines from master to hcu unit side to side lines, calipers pads and rotors, it is 4wal, i'm replacing the master today, and i noticed his brake line replacement was less than desireable, from my service cd i know one of the lines from the Master cyclinder to hcu is a straight run, but the other i'm have a hard time finding if it has coils or is a straight run as well, looked at another f150- but it was only rwal, so the set up is different, ...... so after this long story, my only question is...Does anyone have pictures of the brake lines from master to hcu with 4wal, thanks

4 wheel ABS on rear drum equipped trucks have stainless braided lines to the ABS HCU.

the factory repair manual shows steel lines on 97 98? it only shows one full line though, but i will assume then if they are braided then both are a straight run then, the lines i have on mine have about 5-6 coils, i just didn't want to remove the coils if they were originally designed with them and run into uneven braking issues. thanks
