I assume your talking about the rear? It fits in the stock location. Remove your stock bracket, add the new one after you slot it and reconnect. Seems pretty straight forward but I do alot of work on brakes. Hang tight, perhaps someone has some pics of this.

I just installed a 3" rustys and I found that the original bracket is welded onto the body. The instructions say to cut out a notch so the line can slide and lock into place then I assume you are supposed to drill and screw in the other side.

Or.... just buy a longer rear brake line.
