some new mods to the 93
 
Well, finished up the mods to the truck today, for a while...
Was having a hell of a time trying to find a new, good condition brake line for my parking brake, so I decided for the time being, that I'd just run a manual line lock as a parking brake. It works like a charm. mounted the shut off valve under the dash,

engine bay hardware, two braided steel lines, that I tapped into the brake lines between the splitter and the proportioning valve, and various fittings

and rebadged my truck for s and giggles. I ended up rebadging it as a 3500, since my buddy happened to have an extra set of ram 3500 badges floating around his garage....saved me about 30 bucks, and since I eventually want to convert to a dually, I figured it wouldn't hurt to start it out early...

For anyone who might be interested, here's the complete parts list of everything I needed to buy for the line lock kit.
(1) 3/8-24 x-3 steel adapter
(2) 1/8 NPT to -3 str steel adapter

(the following parts are basically two 5 foot sections of braided steel brake lines)
#3 x 3/8-24 i.f. tubing adapter steel
-3 s/s tfe .040 wall
-3 straight swage hose end w/7/16 nut

(1) 1 brake shut off valve Swagelock PN# 48010
