    Pictures of brake line routing for Disc Brake Conversion

    I have started the process of upgrading the suspension and brakes on our 2020 320G. Does anyone have pictures of their brake line routing they would like to share? I am trying to plan the best routing for the brake lines and would like to keep them off of the bottom of the color plast.

    Thanks in advance.

    I don't have photos, but MORryde installed our brake lines on top of the bottom channel of the chassis I-beam - not underneath nor near the Coroplast. The lines are very well protected there.

    Ran line from the front on the right side of the rig. There was more free space on the right side, in the front compartment, for the controller.

    All lines are very protected, if a line passes a sharp screw, I put a short piece of fuel line over the brake line to protect it. Any place where the brake line passes thru a drilled hole, it is protected with a piece of fuel line over it.
    Brakes work VERY well. No comparison to the BS Electric brakes.

    Off topic, but did you add the U-Channel bracing to the front spring hangers as well?

    Yes I did. Front and rear and a 2 inch in the center. Boxes in the hangers, keeps them from flexing... 2 inch in center, because I wanted to make sure it would not interfere with center hanger movement...

    Did you use a kit for the disc brake upgrade, or piece it out?
