Anyone have a pic of the brake line going across the firewall and how it goes to the pass front brake? Thanks
what year ? drum or disc ?
Doh....69 disc. :brickwall:
There should be flat metal brackets that hold the line to the firewall. I believe it goes under the pass side frame rail and then up and to the right front wheel.
Here is a link with some of my engine pics and you can see where the pass side front line gets routed.

Those were purdy. Here's one from my 70 RR. I think they would be close to the same.
yeh that was a long time ago before I got everything back to being correct.
So the lines go under the frame to the front brakes?

I don't know enough about the correct part but it was a very nice job.

Here's another view from the other side before I replaced the lines. As mentioned this is from my 70 RR. Not sure if there were any differences from 69 B-Body
Very nice pics guys. All these nice looking cars motivates me. Anyone have a pic or two of the hose mounted to caliper/frame for the factory 4 piston? Trying to run the lines and then the front end comes apart for new parts.Thanks for the replies....
I know I have some pics of that somewhere. I just have to dig around and find the disc that I have them saved to.

drivers side only
Good you posted those. Wonder why they changed from 69-70?
Perfect. Thank you guys...
just like Bill said and showed,driv goes under the frame,pass side it goes thru the hole above the frame ,just as pictured.I have 2 69's that are both PDB cars and both are like that.
Sweet. Thanks again guys...
Interesting, the complete kit that I got back in 2006 has mine going under the frame. Wonder if I called them if they can make me up a single line since their "concours kit" was not correct? Although they did ask me what my SPO date was so maybe it was a mid year change? My charger is a May 9th, 1969 SPO dated car. :shruggy:
Daytona pics
ok, so then I got screwed. :brickwall:
So for when it doesn't go under the frame and goes through the "window" instead, is the rubber splash shield thing still used?
Yes - It sneaks through it

Aha! Thanks for that picture. I figured as much but I didn't see it in Bill's picture or in the picture of the Daytona you posted so I was wonderin'
:cheers:

Is this splash shield on the right way? Do they both go on the inside?

drivers side goes in the outside - pass side goes on the inside as shown

The car I show is a July 69 SBD and is an original bendix disc brake car. I used and will only use Finelines for brake and fuel lines.
Bill,
Is that the same as E bodies?
All my 70 E-Bodies with discs go under the frame rail - both sides.
sorry, should have been more clear. I was talking about the rubber splash guards. If they were installed the same way or not?
Yes sir.
