Front Brake Line Clamp Options

[StimpsonJCatt]

Had a 3-1/2" lift kit done earlier this summer and the installer used zip ties for the front stainless steel flex lines and I have searched and searched and haven't been able to come up with a better alternative so I thought I would throw the question out to the forum and ask what have some of you all used? The only thing I have thought of is an oversized p-clamp but still wondering what else might be an option. Am I over-thinking this and should just stay with the zip-ties??

Thank you,

Scott

Hang the axle by the extended shocks and turn the steering from lock to lock. If the zip ties don't break, then your lift installer put on excessively long brake hoses.

If you want something stronger and more durable than plastic zip ties get stainless steel ones

After that, he should perform the test I just suggested to see what breaks.

I am new to the off-road scene and my original post was genuine. The zip-ties don't look right which is why I decided to post the question for help from those that have done this before and can share their knowledge. I appreciate the rookie hazing though.

My response about the hose length and the shock/steering travel is also sincere. There is no need for zip ties.

Mine are zip-tied to the shock body, but yours are inverted (to mine).

I have these on my TJ. When at ride height, my lines seem too long. However, they are the perfect length when it is stretched out. (picture not of my Jeep, it's dark outside)
