Hello, TA world; I’m a newbie to this forum group.

I’ve been a Chevy guy all my life.

Most recently, I have been asked to put a 1978 TA back together that was started by someone else.

Figuring out where everything goes has been a challenge.

However, redoing items that were “stuck in” is another challenge.

I have not found any factory assembly manuals like I have from my 70 Chevelle, so I’ve joined this forum.

First, does anyone know where I could purchase a copy of a Pontiac assembly manual?

I have to refit/fit the front to the rear brake line.

It has been zip-tied in the rear at the fitting.

The clip is still intact.

Can anyone help me determine where the bracket would attach, what it looks like, and, most importantly, where I would purchase one?

There are 1976 and 1980 Assembly Manuals available in paper form or CD.

Or you can PM me.

I'm guessing the rear bracket you speak of is the frame to diff flex brake hose bracket?

It is not reproduced like the fronts are and is rarely listed as sellers couldn't be bothered accessing it, so you have to request one pull it for you.

The rear chassis brake hose bracket is #368119, but they only have room for stamping 119.

Or do you mean where it attaches to the rear axle for the lines to each brake cylinder?

Yes, you must return to read and reply; others have already asked.
