Final Switch
About mid-way up the frame, the two tubes switch position and the brake line takes the outside spot. This will allow the brake line to line up and attach to the fluid distribution block (still to be installed) on the frame rail. Here we see the two lines secured to the frame by the front clip, the fuel line bending and turning into the frame and the brake line hanging free. On later models, after the introduction of charcoal canister filtering and fuel return lines as part of the emission system, one or two lines like these were run down the passenger side frame rails as well. Each GM manufacturer was different, so it is not uncommon to find three on one side and one or none on the other. Simply check your original configuration before ordering replacements.
