Can't find this part on my 68-70 CD. Lets see how to 'splain this. 68-70 Dart, drum brake. ... at the top of the rubber brake hose on the front spindle is a bracket..... above the bracket is a curled metal line that goes to the back of the wheel cylinder....its like a transition line from the rubber hose to the wheel cylinder. Can anyone help with a part number or anything?? Need the lines bad Thanks, Tom
 
I wished I could help you out but I can't place it in my head. I threw away a lot of stuff like that when I installed disc brakes on the front.

The rubber brake hose screws into the wheel cylinder. The other end of the rubber hose is mounted in the frame bracket. The only steel lines run from the brake hose to the distribution block mounted on the drivers side frame rail on the engine side.

Here is a pic of the hose. The metal tube fits at the bracket and goes to the wheel cylinder

my 66 coronet has the steel tubes coming out of the wheel cylinders they are straight with one bend i believe and they came installed on my new bendix wheel cylinders. maybe someone used early wheel cylinders
 
ill go out and look on my 70' tomorrow and let you know as i have not converted my brakes over just yet so its still set up with the drums.
 
I'll look and see what I've got. I know I had some of that stuff around....
 
In the 30+ years I've been messing with Mopars I don't think I've ever seen that setup. I don't think that was on my 60 Valiant.

but I've slept AND changed my socks since then

Classic Tube in Lancaster, N.Y. has everything you need. Call 1-800-882-3711 they are real helpful and don't mind answering your questions. I spoke with Mike Vacanti in July of 2007. He was very knowledgeable.
