    Ron,
    your setup is different from mine. I need photos of the factory brake line routing and the front tee location from MC forward. It appears a 1/4" line goes from MC to the tee (where ever that goes) from the tee it splits to pass. side rubber hose and drivers side

    Twin2's is the factory setup, for the dual reservoir master cylinder. At least one of the versions I've seen. Is yours a single or dual reservoir? That makes a big difference.

    Single. It looks like (from the few pics I have) the 1/4" line comes from the master to a 4 way tee, which then splits off to the back then a line to the drivers side and a line to the pass. side. I lost the original tee and have no pics where it is mounted

    Now we have more info to work with. Yes, the main line goes to a 4 way junction then one line to the rear and two to the front wheels separately. I want to say the junction is by the left front shock mount but I have no pic and this is from memory. My '57 is buried in storage right now so cant help there. Hopefully someone can help with that.

    Found this on another site. I believe this is how my lines were run however I dont think I had the stop light switch on top of the frame as shown, mine is on the MC. Any input ?

    I can get you a pic of my 66 line set-up tomorrow and it only has the one stop switch at the master. It's stock with single master.

    I'll go out and look at the '60 in the morning. I don't have photo capabilities, but will try and get as detailed a description as I can. No lights in my carport area where the '60 is parked right now.

    Sorry about this. Photobucket screwed me up and caused my computer to crash. Will try again.

    The pictures is of my 1967 cj5 with dauntless 225 engine and stock exhaust.This was the brake line work after the dual resevoir conversion so some of the parts are out of place.Stop light switch moved for conveniance and brake line routed around outside for exhaust clearance.It does have the stock heat shield in place. I mainly copied the routing of my 1969 cj5. mike
