BRAKELINE RELOCATION:
1) When installing 3” lift kits on
some 1983/1984 Toyota 4WD trucks, it
may be necessary to relocate the front
brake frame brackets. This is done by
installing the brakeline drop brackets.
2) Position the bracket on the side of the frame rail, 1-1/2” up from the bottom side of the rail and
4-1/2” in front of the rear bump stop. See ILLUSTRATION 3. Drill a 3/16” hole and bolt the bracket
into place using the supplied 5/16” self tapping screw.
3) Carefully re-shape the stock steel brakeline. Re-assemble lines and bleed the brakes.
⇒ You must bleed the brakes, otherwise loss of braking may occur.
⇒ After installation is complete, double check all phases of installation before test driving vehicle.
Recheck periodically.
