Re: JPOR: Brake lines

If you did that, you'd need to increase the size (diameter) of the line
going to the 'T' on the axle so as to keep the same volume, no?  I thought
the manufacturers ran individual lines down each side for the front because
of the disks' need for volume.  My '70 & '74 Broncos used to have a setup
like you describe, but they were drum brakes up front.
