I need a front brake hose, the one thats right behind the caliper going up, for both front driv and front pass side.

As well as control arm bushings vertical (upper) and horizontal (Lower) on the front driv side only

Upper and lower bushings? Perhaps you meant to say forward and rear bushings. In either case, these bushings need to be pressed in. That is very hard without the right tools. I would suggest getting the entire control arm with the bushings already installed. Www.fcpgroton.com has them fairly reasonable.

just purchase the entire control arm with the bushings already pressed. By the time the mechanic presses them while swearing up and down he will have charged you enough labor to equal the price of the entire control arms. Go with the Melye brand units from FCPgronton.com. as for the brake lines, I replaced mine and found that most aftermarket units were 1/2 shorter then the factory ones which cost a fortune from the dealer. I got ATE units that fit perfectly. I also have the 12" rotors on my vehicle so that maybe the difference with sizes.

i already ordered the bushings and they were very cheap, hopefully the mechanic doesnt charge me too much so that scenario could be avoided,

my T6 is bone stock , i dont know what the size of the rotors is but online i did not have a choice in length for the hoses, check that link out that i posted in my first post, it shows the parts

no, what I meant by the 12" rotor is that vehicle comes with an 11" or 12" but with the turbo they only have 12" rotors. I have a non turbo but I have the larger factory equiped 12" rotors.
