    Rebuilding 1959 CJ5 F134 - From a parts jeep, I have a dual cylinder conversion kit from ATV (Herm). I am at the "dry fit" stage and find that there is only 1/2 inch clearance from the bell-housing to the brake line port. Am I going to need elbow fitting for the brake line? Or, am I way off in placement?

    Re: Dual cylinder conversion

    Dennis (Speedbuggy) did this mod and said something about tight fits as well. There was some sort of elbow brake line fitting that someone suggested, but I can't remember what it was....

    Although I should be jealous, I just want to get my 4 on the road (safely).
