Can anyone describe or direct me to a schematic of how the brake lines were run on a 49 1/2 ton? Mine were non existent when I purchased my truck. I know the line comes off the back of the master cyl. and crosses over under the tranny. Where does the line to the left front wheel come from. The service manual shows some type of T connected to the master cylinder. Mine did not have this on it. Is it supposed to? Any help appreciated.

The brake line comes out of the MC, goes to the passenger side of the frame and tee's to the front and rear. The front line goes the right front wheel and continues behind the cross member to the left front wheel. The line the goes to the rear goes tee's to another line attached to the rear axle and that line goes to each rear wheel. Very simple, but if any line or connection fails.......Your screwed! eek

dunfire, Thanks for the help. That answered my question about the left front line. The remnents of the line to the rear was in place and I had a pretty good pattern but the lines to the front were gone.
