Re: Complete build change. Lifted 2wd

Since the tranmission is now gonna need some attention we finished up the brake lines. For anyone doing this style lift you'll quickly find that routing the rubber hoses for the caliper is a bit tricky. We went to the front of the control arm which required the hose shape to be slightly modified.

The hose still has slack at full droop and is out of the way of any steering components

The hoses ran through an existing hole in the frame and meets up nicely with the brake lines we made a while ago. using a horse shoe clip to retain them.

The rear end brake line also completed and has plenty of slack. We figured out a way to use the stock 2001 silverado brake cables in the factory brackets for the 69 so that should be an easy hook up also.

The frame is basically done. if only the transmission wasn't an issue, it'd be time to really start the swap!
