Since I disassembled the truck soooo long ago, and didn't keep very good track of the parts (lesson learned), I can't find the block that joins the hard brake lines from the MC and the passenger WC, and the hose from the driver side WC. I can't even figure out how they all go together. Does anybody have a picture of this? Or could somebody go out and snap one?
I'm thinking maybe I can cobble something together from the assortment at the parts store, unless somebody knows where I can find the right one....
Thanks -tyler | | |

He probably has all but I don't have the task force catalog; I only see the ones that fit advance design AND task force. Good luck.

if I recall correctly, the splitter has one male side that sticks thru the frame hole and is held in w/ a jamb nut - also most of the rubber hoses now come w/ a knob on the end that fits thru the frame and a C clip that crimps on the knob to hold it - if yer havin fits, I might be able to scare up some pics of the pieces
