Front Brake Lines

You can get pre-formed correct armored brake lines from In-Line Tubing out of Shelby Township, MI. (Armored is the spring wrap on the lines). You need one long crossover line that runs from the proportioning valve across the front of frame and terminates at the junction bracket on the right side. A second short line runs from the proportioning valve to the left side junction bracket (The junction bracket is the small bracket welded to the frame where you connect the metal lines to the flexible brake line hoses. If you P.M. me with your e-mail address I will send detailed pics of the lines and related clip attachments. I am in final stages of restoration of my 75 rolling chassis and have documented description and pictures of all stages of assembly. I hope to publish when complete. Anything you need, please let me know, AL
