[FC] brakes line

[Steven]

Converting to a dual MC is a very easy morning or afternoon job using 
Clark's prebent front lines.  The truck is high enough off the ground that I 
was able to get underneath and do it in my driveway.  Routing the prebent 
lines wasn't an issue.  The only "trick" that I recall was to leave the MC 
to frame bolts loose so that I could move the MC around in order to make it 
easy to mate the threads for the lines.
