Exactly what i did on first Time in the first pic...but it touches thé exhaust and i used aplastic band to put thé hose away
...but technical control in France pas bot happy with that.
On 2nd pic it should.be ok...but thé hose i surely.longer than stock....home made one...where to find the cubewith thé three connections...or a shop that Can do that...

25 yrs ago when I ran 3" tubes all the way out, I simple cut the braket off of the rearend and rotated it about 30 degrees and rewelded. So instead of it being on the "front side" of axle tube...its kinda on the rear facing side of tube.

Maltoch,

Had the same problem. Did this which is exactly what a previous user posted.

Found out mine is sitting too close again since I lowered the car so I'll have to address that.

My rear end doesn't have that bracket, only small metal tabs which hold solid brake lines to the tubes. Brass T block is bolted with one of the differential cover bolts.
