I got my car back yesterday from the body shop and i'm starting to put the thing back together... slowly...i converted from drums to 4 wheel disc, so all my pics on how the lines and stuff go back together on the rear are worthless, and my rear disc kit has no instructions as far as line routing and connections go. Have any of you guys got some pics of the lines, connections etc. for the rear disc brakes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

i should have said info as well as pics.... heres a specific question, ive got short rubber lines that come out of the calipers(just like the front), where do these lines mount? Ive got no bracket or retaining clip for their ends and no idea where they go, and my hard lines that go across the rear end look like they are about long enough to go all the way to the calipers themsleves.... having a rough day....

Hey, I just installed rear brakes on my '67 using a Baer kit. The picture of Pozzi's wife's camaro rear end should show you what you need for your 69- http://pozziracing.com/rear_axle_.htm
You'll have to straighten and re-bend the lines so that they are pointing toward the front/rear on the top of the axle as shown.
Where the rubber lines connect to the hard line, there is a tab with a hole in it and it holds the rubber line in the same way that the front brake hose is clamped to the frame- the Baer kit uses a tab with a band clamp holding it to the axle, in the picture, David just welded it on before painting.
So you need the tab/band clamp and the clip(like the ones that hold the front hose to the mount) to hold the brake hose to the axle.
Actually i think that baer gave me an extra one that i could send to you if you can't get one- I'll have to look around if you need it.
Good luck-
Dan
