Hi. Can someone please tell me the correct bolt size that attaches the brake line distribution block to the top of the Dana axle?
Thanks much

Hi Vance. This is Paul Saccone. You did the body/paint on my FY1 440 convertible 10 years ago. I'm still slowly putting it together (should have had you do the whole thing!!).

Wish I could remember....so does the brake block attach to the rear through that vent hole (it looks threaded). Is this a special bolt.

Thanks for your feedback.

Junkyard, car, van or truck with it in it will work as long as it comes off of a Dana 60 thumbsSome of the 4whd trucks have a hose on them, that extends way above the rear end housing up into the frame to keep water out of the housing work

Last question for now - is there a washer between the vent bolt head and the brake distribution block?

Yes, it's an external-tooth star washer.

You might give Cass a call, he has more than listed on the site from memory.
