Question 53 brakeline routing
Got my Mustang IFS installed on the 53 F100 with frame faceplates...now I"m contemplating how to route the new brakelines to the calipers because those faceplates are in the way. Anybody got some good ideas or pic's how you've done it that could assist..?

What you need is a brakeline feedthrough, here is one pictured on a TCI chassis. There are various vendors that carry these feedthroughs.
