I am upgrading my '73 FJ40 to front disc brakes, using the FJ60 style vented rotor and V6 caliper kit from Marlin. I have a few questions I was hoping I could get answered.
First, do I have the spring in right? Also please feel free to point out anything else you see wrong. Passenger side:
Second, I also purchased Marlin's backing plate eliminator, so, no backing plate. Do I just run a hose directly from the caliper inlet, without supporting it on the caliper end, over to the stock mounting bracket over on the axle?
At the same time I had also purchased Marlin's brake line mount and clip set, but I think that might have been intended for the stock minitruck setup; do I even need those, and if so, where would they even mount?:
