1996 Dodge Dakota complete restore, rebuild and audio

Nothing super exciting and my first time running all new brake lines. Overall, I am happy with the brake lines, but there is room for improvement. I had to weld all-thread nuts on each side of the axle for the mounting bracket offset. The soft lines I used are not for this axle, but they were easy to work with. What you aren't seeing is all the lines running under the truck with separate rubber lined clamps every foot or so and the fuel filter is on the inside of the frame rail also.

The brake line is a copper nickel line, so it was relatively easy to bend and looks pretty neat IMO.

This is just a quick pic of the AN fittings used throughout the fuel system. I used PTFE line covered by stainless braid, which is in turn covered by a black braid. Very sturdy stuff.

Had to make a new transmission crossmember for exhaust and shift cable clearance.

Inner fenders primed and then base coated.
