That should fix your pic... But its a small image to begin with and it wont expand to show detail. See if you have a larger image to host so we can see it better.

Did you have TCS as well? If not, great it makes it simpler. With TCS being removed as well, you need to get 2 'T' fittings, and all the flare fittings to attach to your brake lines, valve, and (if you wish) Line Lock.

Without TCS, you need 1 T fitting for the front brakes and a union for the rear brake line.

Yep, as long as you can prove the parts are of a brand they carry. Lesson learned, dont trust ANY auto parts store to give you the correct stuff. Places like autozone will not hire people who know what they are doing. They'd rather get someone with absolutely no experience for some reason.

Yeah, if you're doing something custom, FORGET using autozone. All they know how to do is follow those stupid computers. I suggest finding an old auto parts store and for that matter, one WITHOUT computers... LOL. That way they have to think.

I love my local CarQuest and Tropical Supply stores for that reason. 'Most' of their stuff is in books, so I can search myself.

I picked up an SMJ ABS delete setup for the '93, beats the hell out of piecing one together. I'll have to fab a couple lines (especially since I have manual brakes) but it come with all the fittings you need. Good stuff!

yes they didn't even have the fitting i needed and wouldn't take back the ones that they gave me that were wrong. went to advanced and got the 3/16 flare fitting but didn't carry and 1/4 flares. part stores suck.... guy at autozone tried to tell me i was wrong even after i explained twice to him i WAS NOT USING abs and it was deleted. i'm thinking you a$$ i think i know what i'm talking about. then he goes dealer is the only place for that.

heres a pic of mine. I got my fittings from carquest. They got a HUGE cabinet full of fittings. And some brake line and a $5 bending tool and got it done in like a hour. Made a LOT! of extra room for larger intake tubing.

I believe its SJM, but yeah I agree. Thats exactly what I did. I bought the kit with the Biondo Line lock and the Wilwood proportioning valve. I didnt have to fab anything, but I still have the brake booster in there.
