Update #2: After 3 months of back and forth emails (their Technical dept on uses emails to talk to customers) and tons of frustration, I still do not have this brake conversion done.
In late June, I called Inline Tube told them I was going from a manual brake disc/drum 1968 Firebird to a power brake disc/drum setup with 1969 stock calipers and they told me all the parts to buy. When I received the parts, the brake lines did not line up with the distro valve. They said the order was wrong and that they sent a 1969 upper pwr booster assy (pwr booster, master cylinder, distro and proportioning valve) and 1968 brake lines. That's weird because I'm sure the upper booster assy is the same for 67-69 Fbodies but sure, whatever, just get this fixed! In July, they sent me a combo valve and bracket and said this would definitely fix it...haha, not even close.
Last week, they said they would send me a 1969 brake line kit and 69 brake brackets. I received it on Saturday and thought this should be it. Well, the lines fit correctly with the distro valve but I don't have any holes on top of my frame to mount the brake brackets they sent. They also sent me a 1pc front to rear line instead of the 2pc I ordered before.
I'm sure this will take multiple emails and many days for them to understand why this isn't working and why I'm still emailing them.
I do have a question: do I need to have the 2pc line with the rear brake hold-off valve? I'm not sure which applications use the 1pc or 2pc line setup.
Also, if anyone has a solution to my adventure, please let me know. I really didn't think new brake lines and booster assy would be so difficult!
Thx.
