I tried to install the flex lines for the 80mm calipers from Applied last night, but wasn't sure how. Does anyone have a picture? I couldn't tell what the little bracket attaches to or how it attaches. Also not sure which is left and which is right.
Thanks

Steve,
I wrote this up for installation of the disk brake upgrade and JimK has included it on his website.
<http://appliedgmc.com/images/discbrakekit.pdf>
Part way down is a picture of how I attached the hose using the clips supplied. Some do not like drilling a hole into the upper control arm but I see no harm in doing so. Hope this helps.

Between this and Randy's photos, it will be easier to figure it out. I too strugglad with this. [Note to Jim K.] These should be labled "right" and "left".

We find that we tend to think everyone can finger it out , so we tend
not to get too elaborate.
I will try to hire some people to go over these to help make it more
friendly to do.
I appreciate all the help we have received from people that have assisted us.
Thank you,
