    Thanks Dave.

    Just to clarify I am doing the drivers side too. I just didn't get around to it and wanted to point out its not as much of a concern because of the limited travel. So yes, it still should be done but you're also not going to rip the line off.

    When I do the drivers side im going to re-do the passenger side with a nicer bracket. That really is just a temp job but worth showing that it doesnt have to be pretty to be functional.

    But back in the '80s, didn't Fernando (Billy Crystal) say ...it's better to look good than to feel good... ?

    Made the extension for the drivers side today. 20 minutes and some aluminum, topped off with black enamel and all good to go.

    Another update. Finally got around to relocating the ABS sensor connector mount. On the driver-side it gets tight. So I drilled 2 new mounting holes to bring it down further. Now it has plenty of slack.

    OLD LOCATION: The two holes near each other



    NEW HOLES: Drilled new holes (left side of pic, old holes in background), sprayed everything with black enamel for protection



    DONE
