Disc Brake Conversion - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 67 half ton stepside that I'm doing a frame up on. I'm putting 2.5" drop spindle and disc on the front. My question is about the bracket for the brake hose. The hose seems to be a little long to go to the original frame bracket, and the hose end is smallet that the hole in the bracket. I want the finished product to be nice! Is there another bracket that I need to get, or do I make the best of what I got?

1979 Chevette hoses sound like they will work.

Try this link and good luck, Rg

Thanks for the reply, and advice. The link didn't work. I'll try a search for the Chevette hoses.

Thanks for the help. That saves me scratching me head, and possibly loosing more hair.
