Finished installing the front disk conversion. Just installed a dual master cylinder. Have an adjustable brake proportioning valve..... now the brake lines. (This is on my51 3100 truck) The lines originally were routed from the master cylinder across the cross member to the right frame rail where they T-junctioned for the fronts and the rears. Since I now have a dual master cylinder installed I have a couple of questions- -Should I run two lines (one for the front and one for the rear) across the same cross member? or run one line up the left frame rail? Only concern here is that the brake line will run past/close to the exhaust. -I looked around for any companies that have pre-bent lines for front disk/rear drum setups with dual MC AND brake proportioning valve and didn't find any. I've bent some line before but now that I am dealing with a bunch of lines I want safety to be #1. Thanks for reading this, Haasman
Run the front straight ahead, then t to the right, following the crossmember. Run the rear straight back to rubber line, then t to each brake.
I got all my brake stuff from inline tube very helpful and knowledgeable and will custom bend lines.they knew a lot about my application (51 with mustang 2 front and Chevy 10 bolt rear ) disc front , drum rear Hope this helps Joe
A Thought Volvos & School Busses run one circuit to one front and one diagonally placed rear wheel ~ this increases the safety factor greatly.... More work of course .
