VDOG,

how did you route you brake hoses?

I just did the brake upgrade on my 65 and the hoses they sent me were the stock 71-72 hoses and I cant seem to get them routed correctly, so they wont rub on anything moving.

PS anybody planning on doing a disc brake upgrade look at gmc pauls kit. It comes with everything execpt the hard lines from proportioning valve to brake hoses. It comes with stock or 2 1/2 drop spindles (the correct spindles for our year trucks that uses stock ball joints and stock tie rod ends) and 6 lug rotors for 620$ plus shipping. the five lug kit is 10$ cheaper but if you buy the 6lug kit and sell the rotors for easily 100.00 and pick up some stock five lugs rotors from the parts store of choice for cheap the you could easily get this done for approx 500
