I was thinking about that hitting the True Value bringing the caliper and flex hose and seeing if i could get a better angle from a fitting. I also have a braided flex hose. They are B- body but thinner and a little more flexible but the male fitting is the same size would still be a issue I think. My father in law thinks I should swap the spindles and mount the calipers to the rear but I have read that should not be done due to possible hose issues. I wish I had not sold the old rusty 70 challenger pin type brakes , spindle and brackets I had laying around.
These are master power repops supposedly for an e-body the rest of the system booster/master/ lines are stock type e-body.
Mopartech article says this about it. What my father in law suggested. I am a little stump but I will buy or mod my way around this. Open to any suggestions.
excellent repros are now available from Master Power Brakes, Inc. Do not succumb to the temptation to use "lookalike" knuckles from later Mopars, such as 73-up B/R-bodies, F/J/M bodies, etc. These parts, while visually very similar, are taller, altering suspension geometry (camber change, bump steer, etc.), and possibly forcing the ball joints beyond their designed range, a/k/a “over angling”. Also do not swap the knuckles side-to-side to mount the caliper toward the rear, this causes brake hose routing difficulties.
