Wrapping up a re-check of my rear-brakes, and I can’t seem to make either of these clips ‘fit’ on the suspension arms. Granted, my arms are reinforced, however I feel like I’m missing something. Hoping the world can help, as the search feature brings up photos that I can’t quite see. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)

So reinforcing the rear arms can take a few forms - tricky to see in the photos, but yours seems to have extra metal plating welded on; if this extra plating was "slotted" before welding to fit over the brake pipe mounting tabs then you just have less "depth" on the tab - and the clips won't fit any more. The weld around the base of the tab isn't helping things either.
Options are rethinking brake line securing hardware; or bringing forth the grinding, cutting and welding mayhem.... - Tony |
