Front flex line routing, is this ok?

[HotRod68Camaro]

I wasn't sure if there was a wrong way to run the flex lines for my front discs. This is how I have them now. Should the fitting on the caliper be turned upside down or is this ok?

Looks like full droop in the pic. Should be fine. Put it at ride whight and check for intereference with the wheel during full lock. Also see that it won't go into the spring area. I can't see any issues though.

Thanks, the main thing i wasn't sure of was whether the fitting on the caliper was alright. I will wait till i get the tire on to finalize it.

General rule of thumb . The bleeder ALWAYS goes in facing up, looks like you have the wrong caliper on the wrong side.You will never be able to bleed the system like that their will always be air trapped at the top of the caliper.

So what do i do about 4 bleeder valves lol

Just need to make sure the hose cannot grab anything in in full lock to lock steering. We generally turn the 90 degree fitting back to about 7:30 or so.

No worries, the first pic was deceiving if you don't have experience with the kit, i had to do a double take myself the first time i bolted it up.

Thanks Frank, Ill give it a shot tomorrow after i get the passenger's side squared away.

It takes a lot of trial fitting to get custom lines to fit correctly.

If I'm looking at it correctly, the top picture is the drivers side at full droop with the wheel turned to the right. If so, this is the longest distance between line attachment points. So, if I'm seeing it right, there is a lot of slack in the hose. By the time the suspension is compressed and the wheel turned full left, you will have a LOT of excess hose length to deal with.

You may want to try disconnecting one end of the brake line with the suspension in the longest requirement position and seeing how much excess there is.

For now i am going to leave the lines at their current length. Over the next year i want to go back to a stock steering configuration instead of the BRP rack and pinion. The reduced turning radius of the R&P is probably what is giving all the excess slack and i have a feeling when i go back to stock i will probably need it.
