Ebrake solutions after installing 3.5" lift.

[beast40]

I just finished installing a Clayton's 3.5 Overland+ lift. In order to get the rear springs in I had to unhook the rear e-brake lines to get enough slack to fit them. Now they are too short to get back on after the lift.

I loosened the bolt under the center console almost to the end and I'm still 2" away. I've googled this and can't seem to find others that have this same issue.

Any advice?

You can relocate the bracket that holds them and run the lines up and over the axle, but are you using vice grips to pull on them?

You need to re- route them under the cross member. Then I used the synergy bracket to hold them off diff.

I'm not, but I will! I unhooked the lines under the console and still can't make them reach. I will try vice grips.

I will try to re-run the lines as well.

Thank you for the tips.

Perfect thanks! Some of these things should be mentioned in the directions IMO.
