They've come close but have gotten out of the way ..... That's why I wonder if I did have 2 cables there would they get clipped then my GF would bitch at me for killing a bird .... She hates when I end a spiders life lol

There is a guy on the expo portal selling a set of the offroad elements limb risers for a great price. He kept the top piece but I am sure you could get it very easily from offroad elements for cheap and have a nice set for 1/2 the cost of new. If anyone is interested.

Tough... Maybe wrap the wires with safety orange glaring tape?
