I'm in the midst of replacing the brake lines on my 57 3100. I found I needed a way to clamp down a junction block. I was able to fab up a clamp out of some sheet metal I had. It turned out good enough I thought I share with you guys.

Nothing like Denny's mad skills, but I was pretty pleased with myself.

Leon

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

Nice looking bracket. The AD trucks use a three way junction block with a treaded stud to mount directly to the frame. I have one I will not be using as I am re-routing all brake lines due to my power assisted front disk brake conversion.

The FLAPS will have three ways with studs and with a mounting hole or tab.

MN,

You think the FLAPS can supply mountable tees?
I couldn't find any in the Edeleman or Dorman catalogs.
That's what provoked me into building the bracket.

regards,
Leon

I might be wrong ( wouldn't be the first time.) But I seem to remember that, when I needed a 3/16" tee with a hole for mounting on my frame, I walked down the block to the Napa store.

Otherwise, I know the usual racing places have them:

http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS-Performance-Products/555/63080/10002/-1?parentProductId=1403915
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/KeywordSearchCmd?No=0&Ne=1 2 3 13 1147708 1500000+1500000&Ntt=inverted+tee&Ntk=all&langId=-1&storeId=10001&Jnar=0&N=0&catalogId=10002&Nty=0

I certainly won't pay the high price the racing places ask for so I use them mostly for manufacturer make and part numbers so my FLAPS can interchange for me. Those racing places get enough of my money.
