Default Rear brake line relocation

How many of you out there do the brake line relocation in the rear ? Probably going to knock this out this afternoon as it it an easy task. Reason being is my RK 2.5 X Factor lift flexes so much the rear sway bar is hitting the brake line bracket at full bump.



Do you like it?
Any issues?
Will i be ok with the aftermarket brake lines that RK provides ?

Well ended up doing it anyways guys. Only issue i have right now is the plate you slide over the brake line to secure it. Seems the shock mount is a bit thicker than i thought. So as of right now until i figure out a solution it will stay like that. Really wont be an issue unless i go wheeling hard. Flexed out the rear all the way and what do you know? No more brake lines hitting the sway bar.

Anyone have any solutions to securing it to the shock mount ?



Other than that issue its perfectly fine.

Maybe you could drill the hole larger so the line will pass thru, then find a washer the right size and thickness and tack weld it over the hole. That's all I've got at the moment.
