brake lines
 
I have an 82 front suspension under my 69. I am down to running the brake lines. The flex lines from the 82 calipers run along the front of the upper control arm. Aren't the 69 hard lines supposed to run behind the crossmember? I want to avoid a cobbled up looking brake line setup. Any pics? Thanks.

Pics would be nice as I'm going to be putting an 84 suspension under my 70...

In 71, the front hard lines started getting mounted to the front of the crossmember. You will probably have to run new lines, and a new bracket that will mount to the front of your 69 crossmember.

i just finished mine and i ran the p-side and rear hard lines up to and around the front crosss member. like how the 72-87 stuff would normally look. i also ran the 73+ prop valve so i ran 3 lines down to the frame, i really dont like or trust the t fitting in the line.
