you be able to work something like this down the area of line you want to protect from rubbing… ![http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/minutemods/brakeline/line.jpg](http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/minutemods/brakeline/line.jpg) [http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/minutemods/brakeline/](http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/minutemods/brakeline/) I’m sure there are different products out there but a spiral one would allow you to leave everything in place and “hand over hand” it into place. ---

ya my only thing is i haven’t bled the brakes yet and deciding on making another line. I dont want to because its a royal pain in the ass. I have a great feeling it will hit. i use to have braided lines but i went back to hard lines. i wanted my 2 main lines to have zero flex. im more afraid of it pinching or bending the hardline then just rubbing it ---

it will take alot to rub a hole in that. i thought on a hond the lines can out the oppsite, just like the rear. maybe you can just put a bend in it around the intake. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/brake-line/27255.md?page=2)
