axle swap question

I swaped a 77 dana 44 into my 74 250 because of the disc brakes. I am now doing the brake lines and here is the question. I connected the new brake line from the caliber to the line but it seems like it should not go to where the brake line exited on the frame. on my truck it exits the frame through the hole in front of the shock toward the front of the truck. On the 77's does the brake line go through the same hole or is it in a different location.
