Brake line question

[Golfball]

I am replacing all of the brake lines on my 75 and have run into a problem. Everything is fitting pretty good except for the hard line from the distro block to the front hose where it mounts to the frame. The hard line coming out of the distro block is about 2-3" too short to reach the hose on the frame going to the front axle. The line is this one here:

Has anyone run into this before.

Any ideas guys? Just added a couple of pics and looked at my other 75 and it has the same height H-block. You can see the block on the hose down below on the side of the frame in the pic.

Might help to post a pic of your setup/issue. You may be able to ebnd the line you have to make it fit maybe it wasnt bent quite right.

Do you have a H block or a proportion valve?Pics would help.

Just added a pic of the H-block. Looks stock.

Im not sure if thats the correct bracket. Im pretty sure that my 71 and 73 are much shorter and mount the h block differently than your pic. Might be a h block out of a pickup. I'll have to look in the morning. Should look more like this.

My 74, the H-block was like the one broncnaz is showing. I bought the same line you are having trouble with and it screw right on with no trouble. You can go to a auto parts store and buy a straight pc of brake line in different lengths and bend it to fit.

I will most likely have to bend a piece to fit. Weird that my other 75 has the same bracket on the H-block. I saw the H-block at TBP referenced above and questioned mine as original.

Thanks for the input.

i had to move the hardline mount (where it connects to the frame line) down about 4" and rebend the line. Also had to move the rear frame mount down as well.
