I’m swapping out the Dana 35 for a junkyard Dana 44. Didn’t realize all the goodies had disappeared.
Can some one post up picture of the brake lines. Particularly the layout and junctions. Thanks you.
I’m purchasing all the parts and want to make sure I’ve got the right components
 
You could save yourself some money and use your existing drum brakes from the Dana 35. Theyll swap over.
 
That was the initial plan Until I realized this was a disc brake setup

The new calipers and rotors are only $124 on rock auto. I just need to see actual brake lines. Some where along the way the hard lines disappeared.
the emergency brake setup is different for the disc then drum.
 
Hope this helps.

Sorry on the dark side. There is a hard line across the axle that switches to a very short rubber line right at the caliper on both ends. I would think the e-brake cables should be very close or the same as on a drum brake axle.
 
Rerouted the hardlines down and around the axle. Keeps them nice and tight and lessening the chance of kinks down the road if the caller gets dropped during a brake pad change.
