'84 240 brake help

Vlvofxr · 08-21-2012, 09:36 AM

I have somehow lost the diagram I made when I took the front brakes apart... Can someone please confirm that the front port on the junction block connects to the top port on the caliper? (I realize there are several hardlines and softlines in between).

What started out as a soft line replacement, has ended up with replacing all the hard lines too....

Appreciate the help.

That appears to be for a conversion? I am using original equipment. Still have the dual circuit brakes. From what I can tell, perhaps it doesnt make a difference which port the fronts are in?

I understand, perhaps i need to clarify my question. I am trying to determine which line from the junction block goes to which connection on the front caliper. For lack of a better description, there is a front left, front right, rear left, rear right connection on the junction block. All of them go to the front two calipers. I have not touched the rear caliper supply lines, all those are stock and connected. If my memory is correct, the front connections on the junction block go to the top connection on the caliper for the left and right respectively. Thanks for the help.
