move the bracket for the EB to the rear/top bolt of the rails. you might need to bend that little tab down to make it work.

Re: Installing rock rails: Move the brake line or remount it?

Haven't seen those rails before...but for Demellos, all I had to do was "massage" it back into place and all is well. I wouldn't let it hang, zip ties would be next choice, some have switched the bracket/mounts (one of the rear ones for the "middle" ones, helps it get into place easier), drilling new holes last choice.
