Default ABS lines

I noticed the ABS line just hang there, pretty low too. The Jeep has a TF 2.5" kit. Is it normal?

No. Those little plastic push-in rivets or whatever you want to call them in the 1st picture are there for a reason.

I used zip-ties to reroute my lines & hold them in place.

Easy fix, don't sweat it.

I figured those rivets should go somewhere, but can't see where. Were they disconnected to allow more flex? Will there be any problems with flex if I zip tie them?

I run 11" travel shocks in the rear & don't have an issue. The zip ties are there to keep them out of harms way but are looses enough that the ABS line can slide up or down if needed.

I think I tied mine off to the axle tube or around the upper control arm mount. I wouldn't worry about it.
