brakeline routing question.....

[jeepin1995]

trying to get my 60/60 axle swap done, working on the rear brake lines..... looking at how to run the line from the frame to the axle..... long brake lines are pricey..... so i got to looking..... what are some thoughts of running the hard line to where my traction bar mounts frameside , then a soft line onto the traction bar, then a hardline down it to the axle, then split off to each side???? i think this way, i won't run the risk of pulling a brake line off when flexing and also, it'll be tucked up with the traction bar....

gimme your thoughts!!

This is how my 14blt was done. In retrospect...would have kept the hard lines on the axle up higher on the axle. Crushed one on a rock not too long ago.

Additionally, I've had good luck buying custom length lines from http://www.classictube.com/brdhoses.asp
About a week turnaround.

Additionally, I have a pair of 30" 10mm (3/8”) 90° Banjo to Straight -3AN Female I need to get rid of if they'll work for you.
