I'm installing The right stuff disc brake conversion kit on my brothers 69 road runner. The problem I'm having is with the brake line routing. The brake lines look like it will work for a front mounted caliper but I need to mount the caliper on the rear because of the sway bar mount. Does any one know what line is needed or how to mount the hose that came with the kit for rear mounted calipers? I sent a email to their tech line but they never responded.
Is this the standard 73-6 A-body conversion kit Joe?
If so, I used regular A-body rubber hoses on mine and had no problems with it. If I remember right from doing Jenn, the ones that came with the kit worked fine in the rear also.
I love Mopars so much I'm date coding the skid marks in my underwear.

5983It's the rubber line on rear of the spindle and on the front wheels of the car. Hopefully that will clear this up! lol
The banjo fitting on the rubber line has a metal tube attached aprox. 4' long. It would work if the calipers were front mount.
I just went back and checked the Cuda I did the conversion on from Inline Tube. They use almost no hard line from the banjo bolt end. Looked for part number but couldn't find one on it.

I recently did a brake job on a Dodge van. I had to bend all three hose tubes to make things work.
I wouldn't feel safe bending the line. The line hits the shock when turning.
I'm gonna stop by the local parts house after work today and see what they have. Hopefully thay will have the C body line that Andy suggested. If not thay should have something with no metal tube after the banjo fitting like Mike suggested..
