I am looking for the different solutions that people have done (preferably pics if applicable) in its final state. I have seen Rticmax(sp?) website but the final solution is from Pauls site.

I would like to see what it should look like. I have mine on order and trying to figure out best way before hand. I have heard to bend this "piece". Other cut it off.

What did you do? Thanks for the help in advance!

I had mine installed on my 01 Max and you need to remove the weld nuts on the trailing arm that secure the ABS line holder in place and then shift the ABS line holder one position away from the wheel and you will see another pre-drilled hole on the trailing arm to re-attach one of the weld nuts. The other one does not have a pre-drilled hole; however, the bracket for the RSB that is furthest from the wheel holds that portion of the ABS line holder in place. Everthing lines up perfectly and the RSB is underneath the rear beam as per the instructions. If you do not do this the bracket that is closest to the wheel will not fit onto the trailing arm because of a piece on the ABS line holder that is in the way. The instructions from Stillen do not take into account that the 01 Max has a different ABS line holder than previous models including the 00.

Sorry, no pics, but....

I cut the rear ABS line support mount off, wrapped the ABS line in teflon tape, and put the line under the RSB brackets. I also bent the brake line brace (in the wheel well) down a little to provide more clearance between the brake line and the top, forward RSB bracket mounting bolt. None of this was rocket science, you'll see when you get the bar.

BTW, Stillen did not send me the correct number / size of bracket bolts. Check the bolts when you get the bar.
