    Edit: it's the ABS sensor line, not the brake line

    Just got a pair of JD Fab UCAs and realized there's no built in mount for the ABS line clip. Any recommendations on how to attach it?

    Looks like they have a little clip spot for the abs line to click into.

    My UCAs don't have that little half ring on them...

    The JD Fab arms do not have any provisions for a mount. I bought Ruffstuff brake line tabs with a 3/8 hole and had a local welder TIG them on. I then used some cushion clamps to hold the line with metric hardware. Kind of a PITA to get this all done but I really liked the JD arms and wanted a clean way to hold the lines down vs. a zip tie.

    All the things!
    I'd recommend an appropriately sized "cushion clamp" as recommended above.
