2wd has a pipe between fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator.

4wd doesn't

edit: i read that wrong didn't i (fail) thought it said fuel rail

4x4 has different connections IIRC? Also has that curly section in the return line lol

PS do you mean rails or lines? The thread title is rails, but the first post is about lines?

As said main difference is the attachment of the pressure reg, being by pipe on 2wd and bolted to the end section on 4wd.

No, lugs on 4 wd inlet are not in same place as 2wd inlet. You can't fit straight.
