swapping brake lines to a 8.8

glxstang · 08-10-2001, 09:06 AM

When swapping the brake lines from a 7.5 to a 8.8 axel, what do I do with that little brake line diversion block on the passenger side of the 7.5 axel. If I move it over to the 8.8 will this be in the way when converting to a true dual exhaust?

Thanks.....

You can safely move that over. I have true duals on mine and it has enough clearance. Mine is an '83 GLX.

Mine clears my MAC tailpipes, I just bouight some heat shielding sleeves and covered the lines to make sure the tailpipe doesn't burn it.
