brake problem at full lock

[extreme gmc]

since i got my front suspension redone the other day when my wheels are at full lock my wheels/tires pinch the rubber brake line to the point that i have little to no brakes. it almost looks like if the rubber line was 3/4 to 1 inch longe it would solve the problem. also, when i am at full lockthe inside of my rim is grinding on the front of my control arm and it is about to knock the wheel weight off. i talked to someone else with a lowered blazer x and he has the same problem. anyone know if a aftermarket company makes a product that would solve this problem?

Spindles I take it you got????
Your suppose to grind away the control arm and relocate the (change its entry direction) brake line so its outta the way.

you mean like move it down so this wont happen?

[extreme gmc]

o yea, yes to the spindles...

The instructions should have told you to lock the wheel and both directions to see where it hits, then remove X amount. And yes to the brake line lower so when its locked it doesnt pinch the line, that was also to be found in the instructions!!

Habit bad man-T? Dislexic you are!!

[extreme gmc]

would i be able to get a tubing bender on there without removing the rubber line?

[OBI WAN]

Take it outta the holder you do. Then can use the bender you must to relocate the line.

Man thats just too F'n much now when I read your posts I put Yodas voice in my head :)

[extreme gmc]

cool, but can i keep the rubber line hooked up?

[OBI WAN]

Rubber lines can you keep, just may have to move the holder for them you may!!!

[extreme gmc]

3/16, right? or 1/4 it is?

I feel a disturbance in the Force, Call it a Brain Fart I must!! Remember off hand I do not!!!

[extreme gmc]

one last thing. hwo far back should i bend them and to approx what degree?

[OBI WAN]

Without having it within hand I cannot say. Turn the wheel to the lock position where the trouble begins and kinda play with it until you see a direction the minimizes the sharpness of the bend without hitting!!

got it fixed. if you look at teh rf brake line, it comes down over the framerail and goes forward again. i bent it so it keeps going down and i cut off the bracket that held it to the framerail and then put a hose clamp around it which is held to the frame rail with a hilte screw with a nut for a spacer. i got it to go away except when you have the wheel turned to the left all the way rubbing against the stop. so in other words i am happy. btw, it was a 1/4 inch brake line and i bought the bender at advanced auto parts for 5 bux...
