According to AEV, proper brake line orientation is between the shock and the spring. You are correct about using two zip ties so that the brake line stays free while flexing.

From my understanding, if you run them between the shock and spring you need zip ties. If you run them behind the shock, the preferred method, you do not need zip ties.

- Oil change
- Removed stock fog lights (JW Speaker fogs on order)
- Bed lined inside of the freedom panels (looks way better than white!)

Dupli-Color, I got it at O'Reilys. Took about 1.5 cans to do the freedom panels. Next time the rest of the roof is off, I will definitely be doing that as well.

Sprayed an American flag on my bumper. It came out good enough that I'm going to add one to the other side. Click image for larger version Name: image-189042855.jpg Views: 841 Size: 60.9 KB ID: 576428
