    Hi there, Does anyone have a picture of how the rear brake line runs from the the junction block to the rear axle hose? I don't need the rear axle setup as I found that already - just how it runs along the frame.

    Thanks

    If you can put the pic in the thread, then everybody can see it.

    I don't recall the exact routing, but I vaguely recall it takes a turn from the frame and goes across the crossmember where the rubber hose comes from. The rubber hose goes down to the axle centered along the length of the right hand axle tube. I'll take a look later when I'm home.

    Thanks guys. TexasBlues - I got your PM also the diagram is great. Thanks again. One follow-up I have that is not clear from the picture is, where does the brake hose run along the frame? Does it run along the top of the frame? Inside the C channel?

    Inside the frame channel. Lower,outside corner.
    Where it runs along the crossmember, there should be some clips that snap into holes in the crossmember. The clips then hold the brake line fast.

    Yup thanks Dread - I was almost certain that is where they went as there are holes in the frame for the line clamps.

    John - good pics. Jeep looks great!
