Re: Extending brake line and relocating bracket on rear control arms?

I noticed that happening, too, when I replaced both upper and lower rear links. I had the cross-link bar disconnected to install the upper links, and the axle really dropped quite a bit; that's when I noticed the brake lines being tight.

I wouldn't think it would be a serious problem for the occasional flex (as the rubber takes up some slack) but if flexing a lot of times, and with the rubber lines getting more brittle with age, it could be a problem...
thats good Im not the only one with this concern.Who has stainless steel lines?What is your take on them? Please share.
