Now, gonna do braided hoses for the truck as well. For the fronts, my source for brake lines says he can't recreate the OE brackets, are they needed?
Not that I can tell...
There wasn't provision for the brackets on my Cognito spindles, so I've just got the brake lines attached by the little clip thingy that connects to the UCA and zip tied at the spindle.
If you're getting a set of lines made, you could get a set of brackets and have them placed over the line as it's being put together, or if it's possible you could just cut lines and take the existing brackets off
I had an issue with the Russel lines I bought for my lift, they were meant for an LB7 and wouldn't fit, I had a set made locally and the shop used my stock lines as a reference for length. When they were making the new extended lines they used the bracket off my old lines...
Wish they hadn't tho, those stupid brackets just hang there in the way
Just FYI-
There's a really great place for custom stuff like this called Clarksville Fastener. They make custom lines for everything and have probably seen it all, they'll make any type of line you want and usually in an array of sheath colors with an array of different connectors and connector colors...
