1st take the hard brake line bracket off of the chassis rails, carefully bend the
the brake line straight, drill a new hole for the bracket, job done.:D
for the rear you need to get a longer 1 from either a TJ, or a braided stainless jobby from the jeep suppliers

Take a look here

I think your lift is higher, but give them a call, they may be long enough.

Mark Gasser http://www.offroadmdg.co.uk/ (http://www.offroadmdg.co.uk/) does them for £77 + VAT (good for up to 6" lift I think).  If you order/pay for them before friday I can pick them up from him and bring them up this weekend, saving you P&P.  Am visiting sister in law who lives in Gornal Wood area.  Mobile No is 07796 264097 if you are interested.

Still trying to persuade better half that we come up in the TJ as I need to run the Diffs in :D

yes that is for the pair plus new mounting kit - Mark described it as "ready to fit".

Post just before you are ready to buy as Tracey and/or I might be heading up to Gornal at regular intervals.
