Hi folks,

Is it normal for extended brake lines to rub on the spindle during turning? Should I try to pull them back and secure them so they won't rub?

Also, who sell those trick looking billet a arms clamps that hold your brake lines?

Thx,

Glamis

I'd try to secure them so they don't rub....

I haven't seen the billet holders for the brake lines..? I'd love to get some for my quad, I've got 'em zip tied right now :(

find a piece of tubing, clear or whatever color you want, about the size of a water hose. cut it into a few pieces about 1/2 - 3/4" or so. get a zip tie, run it around the a-arm, then through the hose piece, then around the brake line. make sense? this does a good job of keeping the brake line off the a-arm. the hose just acts as a spacer.
