I've been there! Had to wheel half the day with absolutely no brakes. It actually wasn't that hard, just had to think more than usual!

Mangler,

Check out this guy's link.

I've been having the same problems on my CJ, and from what I understand, the CJ/YJ fittings are the same (3/8" hardline to 7/16 banjo). He's using 1983 chevy C30 truck lines. You should be able to get anything with those dimensions to fit, or go custom if you must (I would try Earl's for something like this).

The other thing to consider is some sort of retention device also, H8Monday had a good one posted here a while back or you could do this:
