Title: Spacer A-8848
Post by: Birddog7 on February 15, 2017, 07:42:35 PM
Need info on above spacer (group 24-7). It goes behind the brass brake line tee on the 3A & 3B Dana 25 axle

I believe it is just a special flat washer that is used as a spacer behind the tee.

Here's a photo.� Just looks like a chubby washer.� I think it raises the brake line fitting high enough to reduce brake line interference with the axle u-bolts.�

Thanks Rick, that's what I was looking for. Now I have to go thru parts cans and find that spacer. Bought a new brake line kit try to get the short line to fit right. I figure I need a 3/8ths thick washer to clear the ubolts . The pic helped a lot.
