front brake lines
Putting in the front brake lines. There are numerous holes for the clips and the A.I.M. does not show a good diagram of which holes to mount the clips in. Here are the pictures of the right and left upper control arm towers where I think each side gets a single clip. The left side gets a double clip on the two lines but again there are multiple holes. Does anyone have any detailed pictures of where to mount.

The diagram from Keen parts is for an earlier model with the distribution block in a vertical orientation. The 1975 is different and has the distribution block mounted horizontal. I believe the earlier cars had a brake line tee fitting on the front as there are on the rear but mine has two lines on the front each originating from the distribution block. There are two clips that hold the two lines together and the other five are single clips crossing over to the other side. The AIM does not specify which holes in the frame and control arm towers are used for the clips.
