Title: Brake line routing or diagram?
Post by: BeaterGT500 on April 20, 2021, 04:18:53 PM
Putting humpty dumpty back together, and somehow lost the pictures I took of the brake master area before disassembly.  Is there a brake line routing or diagram anywhere for an early (Jan 67) car?  Need to see where the dist block/cigar valve and hard lines all go.

Look at the '67 Mustang shop manual, pages 2-22 and 2-30 is the easiest way or the Osborn Assembly manual(s).

Not sure what version of brake line routing the assembly manual or shop manual shows. There was a change of routing in the engine compartment at San Jose that took place around April 26th - 30th. This difference relates to the routing above or below the steering column
There is a discussion over on CMF and link in the 67 SJ Running Changes thread

Since your report that you have a Jan San Jose built car yours would be routed over like shown below

Here are a few pictures from a couple of different cars so that I got just about every inch of the route from an early style power disc brake San Jose

Hope this helps

Ignore the printing on the flex brake line. Inlucded just to show routing to rear end housing

Jeff has this covered, he has tons more images that I ever will and more knowledge.

Had to get out the door earlier, here are images of the two pages I referenced above and the cover of the shop manual.  The details are many and also why it's better to have the book in front of you, there is a digital version as well.
