Disk brake bracket

[1969chevmalibu1969]

Will I use the bracket for the brake lines that is mounted on top of the frame? It was there when I had drums. I have the distribution block and m/c with metering valve. The brake lines came from right stuff. I can’t tell with the manual. Thanks

Can't be 100% sure, but the brake lines should drop in the same spot I would think. Do they line up where the old bracket was?

That bracket had two lines originally that weren’t included with the kit. I have the in my drum kit but not the disk kit. My drum kit had seven pieces and the disk had five.

The bracket at the back of the disc brakes should be in the same spot, but probably won't line up where the original drums lines went going back to the distribution block.

That frame mount bracket was needed for the original non-power drum brakes. It secures the lines at that spot because the power booster had a spot for the same retention loop to bolt to. Don't have the aim in front of me, but if you look under J50 or J52 rpo, it'll show that bracket mounted to the power booster standoff .
