The other set is up over the axle in the middle.

This.

The kit should have 6 hoses: one for each corner and two for the flexible portion between the body and axle. Most vehicles have one hose here that runs into a "T" on the axle to split off and feed each side simultaneously. Vehicles with Stabilitrak have each side fed by their own hose so the system can modulate each side's braking independently.

Be aware, those two up over the axle are a PIA to get to and some people have also had problems with the fittings on the Stabilitrak models..

Thanks for the info sir! Damn, I wish I had known that yesterday! I guess I still have work to do. Are they hard to get to?

Put it on ramps backwards and get the spare out of there to see them... But, yes, PITA.

Research it before you decide cuz once you crack them lines open...

It may be worth paying them to do it just to avoid the brake fluid running down your arm and into your pit.

If y'all haven't yet, have a look at my build thread. Don't know if tapatalk writes my signature, but the link is in there.

This is on my "to do" list once the weather clears. I'm done working out in the cold :)

Yeah I don't do anything after November. I have to work in my driveway and I hate the cold.
