He said, "Did you know if YOUR speedometer doesn't work, it will trigger YOUR CEL?"

It does on his. It does on yours. It doesn't in all years.

Heres the link http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f27/c...lines-1290226/


I have personally used C1500 brake lines on a 7" lift. You have to grind the edge of the banjo bolt holder on the caliper end of the line just SLIGHTLY to fit...but it's easy, they are long, they are tough, and they are readily available.

Indeed, based on your recommendations I think im gonna go with the C1500 lines, that way there's plenty of room to flex and room to grow

To clarify the circled side is the banjo side that will need to be trimmed slighty, correct?

Yes....

just the very edge of the square...literally less then 1/16" needs to come off. I just rubbed it on a flap disk on my angle grinder.

Test fit it and you will see what has to come off...quite simple really.

I used the bracket....work hard enough and you can work it to the end of the line and screw into your inner fender....
