rear disc brake help!!
 

hello, this is my first time posting on here so i hope im doing this in the right place. i have a 1967 c10 and i need some help on my rear disc brake install regarding the placement and attachment of the brake line tabs where the caliper hose will meet the hard line. i have captain fabs disc conversion and d52 calipers. i dont have hoses yet and i have my hardlines that i ordered from cpp. hopefully ive given enough info to get some help or even just pics of what people have done to make theres wwork would be awesome!!! thanks :chevy:

I haven't got that far on my 71 3/4 ton rear disk conversion but I'd think a guy would want to place the clip so that the hose would have a natural bend without any kinks or stretch plus you want it so that you can lift the caliper off the bracket without taking the hose loose. And the usual not in the way of anything deal goes with it of course.

thanks for the quick response. i have all of that in mind already i was more so curious as to how people attached these tabs. i know you can weld them but i have no welder. and i have seen the style you use a huge hose clamo on but i dont know where to find these tabs. or if there are different size openings in these tabs for diff hoses. what size would i need for what hoses ect. i just want to be sure before i go buying stuff ya know? any recomended hoses?
