14 bolt brake line question ... - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

CragRat · 01-25-2002, 10:40 AM

I changed out my broken 10 bolt for a 14 bolt full floater. The brake lines on the 10 bolt both go to a common pull point on the drivers side, the lines that are on this 14 are both the same length and I dont know what to do with them.
Do you know of a solution to connect the 14 bolt to the same point where the 10 bolt did ?

Get you a "Stainless Steel Braided" extended brakeline and hook it to a differential bolt or L bracket and run new hardlines to that. That should work fine

Could be wrong here, but I think he is talking about an e-brake cables. 1 Ton axles have e-brake cables that match later model Blazers and go down the drivers side. The 3/4 tons have a center attachment point. There are several solutions that can be found by doing a Search on CK5.

You are so right, I was not with it when I wrote that post.
The e-brake cabes are the problem.
There is also a shock placement problem but I can fix that with a new mounting system.

I don't get this "Search on CK5"
please explain

Thanks
Dave
