I have extended SS braided brake lines on my 08 JKU with a 4" RC lift and 35" Toyo M/T's. I love the lift and the ride. My question is, I am experiencing some rubbing of my front brake lines on the inside of the tire at full turn on both sides. Has anybody else had this issue and if so how did you solve it. For now I put some elastic tie downs to keep them pulled back away from the tire but I would like a more permanent fix if anyone has one. Thanks.

 

i have had this problem more then once. all my buddies and i do is zip tie them to something but loose so it can still move. i always zip tie mine to the shock.

 

I bought mine used with the lift already installed and I found out the hard way that they had installed the left line on the right side and vice a verse. One of them rubbed through and after I got the new ones that is how I could tell they were on the wrong side. The metal part of the line has a certain bend to it and if it is on the correct side it will keep it from rubbing. Haven't had any trouble with them since correcting the installation of the one that hadn't quite rubbed through and installing one new line.

 

Zip tied to the shock as well

 

what about the ABS wire? do you zip tie it to the new SS brake line or what

 

Thanks. I was just wondering if there was a more correct way to fix it. I extended my ABS wire too and have them zip tied together. I like my fix it just requires constant inspection to make sure the bungy cords don't break.
