Default Strut Bar Problem

I just put a Neuspeed Front Strut Tower Bar in. It's the kind that bolt on to the control arm mounts. On the driver side mount closest to the fire wall the mount is pushing on a brake line. Any sugestions?

Bump. I'm afraid this may work a whole or something in my brake line.

it will, so u have to adjust it or stick something rubbery on the brake line, cause it will eventually put a nice whole in the line.

I put a piece of rubber there but it will eventually wear through. How can I adjust it? I tried pushing it down but it didn't move. i didn't want to push too hard considering it is near were it conects to the brake assembly.

I have your same setup and although the brakeline it touching the bar's base, it's been fine for about a year now. I would call up Neuspeed if you're still worried, but I haven't experienced a problem yet.

I can't take any pictures any time soon sorry. Do you have anything between the bar and brake line?

if you can get to it, just bend the brake line slightly to where you need it.
