Instructions? These kits come with instructions?

Hey Dartman Yeah nothing these days are "direct bolt in" Ever think about getting the pieces you need from you local parts store? Napa O'reilly's or Rock Auto. I know now and I'm sure you do also that they just put these kits together from over seas part suppliers. I know some stuff with my...

Thanks Greg! I try. You know it. I can't wait also. Oh yeah I did a lot of reading once I was told they were mounted backwards. The consensus from what I've read is that it doesn't really matter where they are mounted. I even read a post about this from you back in 2002 or 2012 on FABO...

Your dead on. I swung the spindle back and forth and it not going to get any closer except for like you say when the pads begin to wear. And since It's below the end of the ball joint should never make contact. Yes. Aftermarket ball joints with the taper bolt longer than is really necessary. You...

Well that was easier than I thought it was going to be. Still took me about 3 hours (both sides) start to finish. Those lines do look better that way alright, but they are pretty tight to the upper ball joints. I guess that is what that metal tubing is for?? I just tweaked a little to give them...

Dam! There you go. lol

10-4 Just came in from the shop checking that out. No paint. I heated them up and applied that RPM to them. Still. Just gently smash the side of the taper. :praying: I am going to try and leave the rotor on through during all of this though.

Thanks 1 Wild R/T and everybody else. I'll post a update when I get them switched around. The thing is not trying to scratch anything right?? Made it the first time. Two more times to go. Not tonight though. lol

Ok Thanks. Yes it does pass through the K member. Back to step one. It looked so nice on there. Now I wonder how hard it will be to get that upper ball joint off. That's the only variable in my head. Wish me luck.

So switch the spindles around. With no fears of sway bar interference??

Thanks Greg. I was reading about front mounted and sway bar interference. Wouldn't the different design of the hose be sufficient?? Normal banjo hose? None of that metal tubing. I read just slightly longer hoses for rear mounting. Like nobody is running that particular conversion? The Dippy...

Just read the specs on that. Couple of inches longer. Yes sir

Going to give the F-body lines a better look. https://www.napacanada.com/en/p/NUP38054

Like I said, those brake lines and calipers are for a 73-76 A body. I have some old mags that say that was the perfect swap set up. Maybe not the hoses?? Anybody looking have those type of hoses?

I've tried both ways. Up like in the above pictures and also down.

Rear mounted calipers. Hence if the pictures are clear of this.

I know what you mean Greg. I think the same way. Even one with just the banjo fitting that you could turn in that general direction. I knew I would be having trouble with this kit. Bought it back in 17. Never really looked at just to see if it was all there. The rear hose to the rear end was the...

I knew I would have a bunch of questions when putting this thing together. I've checked and apparently my kit more or less is from a 76 A-body. The Caliper and hoses are anyway the best I can tell. Cross referencing auto part sites. So does my front brake hose look alright? Not to tight? Right...

I guess I knew that, but like I said I had so many of them. I think I have around 8 of them all together. Someone must of lost count along the line. Thanks guys for the response. I'll have a few spare.

I was wondering that but why so many? One on top and one on the bottom?
