    Has anyone run into this problem? The break line is eating into the reservoir of the rear passenger shock. Any ideas on how to fix this is appreciated.

    Thanks

    Happened to mine as well. It didn’t notice until a fairly large portion of the shock was worn away. I just turned the shock around

    if the mount on the e brake line was not relocated then likely the cause as i think some mentioned. I have a a small bracket that moves it down a bit.

    This is what we did. I have a different setup but this allows for more room and not be stretched

    That looks like what I need to do, I have the factory bracket but my truck has a mini pack so it couldn't be installed. Did you buy that or make it?
