    Can someone please tell me what these hoses are for that go to the rear drum brakes? I've watched countless lift videos and scoured google and can't find what these are, or what I'm supposed to do with them after lifting the rear.

    I lifted my truck last weekend and there's no attachment point on the new leafs for the bracket that secures these lines, so I just zip tied them to the leaf pack for now. What did you guys do with these after swapping leafs? Do I need to extend them at all?

    EDIT: Looks like I'm not the only one.. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/e-brake-line-bracket.586503/

    I feel like zipping it to the leaf pack is not the best idea long term

    And make sure it's not too tight and dragging the parking brake

    2017 Tacoma OR 4x4 (formerly a 1998 SR5 PU, 2002 OR 4x4, 1995 4x4 4Runner, 1985 4x4 Toy PU) ... and RIP’s (rust in pieces) to a Bronco II 4x4 & S10 Blazer 4x4
    Are those plastic zip ties to hold the cable and leaf pack together? The bracket for that cable is on the front of the leaf pack, if you’re missing it try to find an attachment point that doesn’t move in that area, not on the leaf pack itself because those parts going to be rubbing against each other and the cable sheathing will get worn out. But I seriously doubt the plastic zip ties will last long anyway.

    Agreed - bad idea, the leaf pack will flex and rub a hole in the parking brake cable.
