Anyone have any suggestions on how to attach the brake line to the housing of a FAB 9 rear end?
Thanks,

If you're talking about where it goes from hardline to flexline, weld a tab with a hole on, the use the appropriate bulkhead fitting.

If you're talking about how to attach the hardline itself, drill and tap the rear end where you want attachment points to 1/4-20, and use Adel clamps with alittle silicone on the threads of the bolt.

Thanks Matt, where can I find Adel clamps?

No problem. Go to http://www.mcmaster.com/ , then to catolog page 1344, and they're the first on that page. MSC, Enco, Grainger, etc etc will all have them, but if you only need enough to mount the brake lines on your housing, your local hardware store or home depot will have them too.

Have fun!
