    Randy I was just talking about the bracket that the union attaching the rubber hose to the hard line is sitting on top of. I get it now...there is a nut welded to the rear.

    Here's another question. Are your hard lines just standard inverted flared steel lines? Are those stock Mustang rubber hoses? I have '97 camaro discs on a '68 camaro 10 bolt. I ordered stock camaro rubber hoses and it threads on fine to my hard lines, but the flares on the hard line and rubber hose do not look like they will seal.

    Yes, I used the stock Mustang hoses and modified the mounting bracket for the axle. For the hard lines, I bought a 51" piece of 3/16" steel brake line and bent it to fit my application. I cut it and double-flared the ends to fit it to the hoses.
    Are your hard lines double-flared?
