Brake hose with drop spindle
I used some POL drop spindles that have factory calipers. Noticed the brake hose hits the spindle between the upper castle nut. Anyone else see this as a problem on their truck? 73 C10.

Yes, just carefully bend the line out of the way.

Re: Brake hose with drop spindle
Very common problem.
Just give it a gentle tweaking.

Common prob. I use a crescent wrench to gently bend it with out kinking it.
