another progress rsb ?????

did anyone have any problems with the brake line??? u know the screw that attaches the brake line is it suppose to be all the way tightned??? i just tightned it until it couldnt be tightned anymore because of the bracket it got in the way? what can i do to fix this. i am worried that the brake line could break or leak. or am i stressing over nothing. i am stressing because someone posted that when they lowered their car their springs were rubbing against the brake line and causing the break line to break while he was driving. so am i stressing over nothing please help me put my mind at ease

thanks and sorry for long post

thanks

I took the bracket off and zip tied the brake line to the trailing arm if i remember correctly. It was either the brake line or the emergency brake line that did not have a lot of slack so i took the brake line bracket off. I will have to look to see what I did exactly.

I just finished installing the Progress RSB and had a problem with the brake line as well, what I did was cut the brkt so that the part where the brake line originally fit, is gone and the brkt now fits behind the rsb brkt, then I zip tied the brake lines around the trailing arm, and reinstalled the ebrake with a nylon space from the local hardware store, worked great, I had the first bushings about 3/4" from the end of the rsb, handles great!

I have the Cattman RSB which is basically the Progress bar. I just used longer bolts and spacers to space off the brackets from the trailing arm.
