Here's rear mounted pin calipers with braided banjo line. The line is just routed in U shaped down from the banjo fitting and upward to the body fitting.








The arrangement shown doesn't have the hose crossing the steering axis. This causes lots more twisting in the hose and mandates a very, very careful and thorough check for abrasion and "going taut" lock-to-lock, full jounce to full rebound, all combinations thereof. If the calipers must be rear hung for some reason, you are way better off moving the hardline and frame brackets to the front.

His original post led me to believe that he had pin-type calipers and they were front hung (he said LCA interference). Now he says he will move them to the front...so who knows?

Using the taller late-B knuckles may improve the camber pattern a small amount but definitely TRIPLES the bumpsteer!

So Rick which is it, the Chrysler engineers are brilliant or are they idiots?

In your articles of disc brake conversions you expound the virtues of the Chrysler engineers when it comes to the use of the taller knuckles on earlier models yet you chastise them because of the way they mounted the calipers?

You seem to forget you are dealing with Mopar owners that because the shading of reproduction hardware is off by one or 2 shades, do you really think they are going to move the brake line attachmant point and bend up their own lines ?
