After 2.5" lift my rear brake line touching shock.
 
Is this okay? Can't remember if this brake oil line was touching before the mod.
- Will post picture soon.

I had the same issue. Bend the brake line gently away from the shock and you should be good. I caught mine as it was wearing into the brake line.

X2 on that. Just keep an eye on it after you wheel too .

x3 I noticed it would hit on bumps. I spend days tightening and retightening bolts. I was ready to just live with it until I was underneath with some black spray paint to hit my muffler and rear axle when I noticed the mark on my shock. I gave it a little nudge and wasn't even sure if I did anything, but no more noise when I hit bumps.

So far, no rubbing
 
Followed the recommendations using gentle bending with hand for rear (driver side to move more front, passenger side to move rear) and front lines just readjust the angle in the bracket.
So far, no rubbing.
thanks for all help...
