Does anyone have or know where to find a schematic of brake lines for a 1940 Chevrolet panel. It has a 133" wheel base. I don't know what kind of splitters I need or what diameter the line is, (I think 1/4"). Any help would be helpful. Thanks.

So I don't know how much information you need but here is a schematic in the parts manual. Parts Diagram The pipe junction at front on my 38 Master is sort of in the middle of the crossmember whereas on my 51 1 Ton, the junction feeds the right hose directly and then feeds the pipe that goes to the left front. In general the lines run inside the frame and front to back that would be the passenger side rail.

Thank you that is really helpful. I guess I was unaware of the master parts catalog. I bought a service manual for the truck a thought that would help with part and pictures. Not as much as I hoped. Thanks again for your help.
