BRAKE LINE ROUTING HELP
Happy to say that with the help of everyone here, and after three and a half years, my truck is running. Now I have to make it stop. I have the parts and the tools but am a novice. Running into questions about the routing of the rear lines in the area of the drums and the leaf springs....over....under...through. Anyone have some advice photos etc. How precise is necessary when bending the U shape around the leaf spring bracket on the axle. It's a '56. Thanks

Thanks John, that helps a lot. If I can just get a photo of the someones stock or near stock rear axle brake lines I will be set. I looked at someones at a car show the other day and thought to myself " this is much easier than I was making it". Failed to take a photo and can't remember a thing.

HEY......THANKS TO EVERYONE!!!!!!! Was sitting and trying to think it all through, anticipating all of the things that could go wrong. Finally got off my **** and just did it. It wasn't as difficult as I made it........AGAIN. It doesn't look as good as all of yours but it looks like it belongs on this truck. Thanks
