Hey folks, anyone able to give me a dimension from the fuel line tube to the center of the emergency brake cable hole? Torque boxes where replaced (surprise ! not) but the bodyshop neglected to put it in.

i don't have the dimension handy, but if you still need the dimension after looking at these pics, i can probably go get it.

this is not the original torque box. i replaced it and had to cut it for the channel.

Without the channel, that's going to be fun to route that cable through the torque box. Here's a pic of my torque box after installing the cable channel



I've still got my old torque box, if you really want the measurements from that I can try to remember to look at it tonight

Got er done

Hey all, thank you for the pics. I got it drilled 5/8 and prayed to get it fished through. Well, high tech guy like me relies on a coat hanger to come through. The fuel tube was 1.25 away from trail and I drilled at 3" away from the rail centered int he gusset. Looks great. Another satisfied Mustanger.
