Re: running disc brake lines on a 67

Are you using the 71 crossmember?

If so its got the tabs for the soft lines in the FRONT of the crossmember where the drum crossmember has tabs in the REAR

Re: running disc brake lines on a 67

I just did this on my '70 model that had power drum brakes (wierd) that I changed to 4 wheel disc and I used a kit from inlinetube.com that worked perfectly and came with all the required prebent lines, fittings etc. It took me about 2 hours to do with no loss of blood or skin. My o.e. lines were in really bad shape, so I feel really good about this expense for sure.

Re: running disc brake lines on a 67

Sorry about not filling you in completely. I am using the 67 front end I have the correct adjusting nut for the tie rods ect,ect,Do the lines run on the motor side or outside the frame,going up to the master cyld? I think I am going to run a 79 booster,master cyld,prop valve cause I have one. I have read on here it schould bolt right up. Ithought I would run 71 lines away from the calipers.

Re: running disc brake lines on a 67

I'm using the CPP corvette style m/c & p/v. I originally had it on my '76 blazer and it worked on there too, so yours should too. The lines from the m/c run outside the frame & then cross under and down the back of the crossmember like stock. I also bought 2 SS braided lines from the hard lines to the calipers. I'll shoot a few pics if you want.
