    Man your having a lot of issues with this install . Did one of your hard lines kink ? Why do you need custom hard lines ? Is it the hard line in the front that the flex line connects to?
    If so it's just a small line that you disconnect from the T joint and the bracket to the flex line .
    Grab some line and a flare tool and bender from your local auto store . Cheapest way to fix it .

    Believe it or not the work I did at home went really smoothly--a bit of a struggle with the 2ndary hoop install because of space at the top on the coilover mount. Its not the hard line--Icon provides a piece of stainless braided hose to replace the hard line to the caliper. Well apparently one started leaking over at the shop where the welding and 2ndary shocks were being installed. Not sure if a problem spatially with the Icon hose or not--there's a pic of the hose in here:
    http://www.iconvehicledynamics.com/...coma-S2-Modular-Performance-Shock-System.html

    I just need something in there so I'm not losing fluid. Obviously I want the job to be done and be right, but I'll take done at this point, still trying for the takeover next weekend. I'll probably end up calling Icon for replacement hoses and more detailed routing information. My truck is done but can't go anywhere until the brake situation is dealt with :mad:

    I'm surprised it wasn't totaled. Hopefully that is the last problem with it, seems like you've had enough
