Why do you need to do this?

Why can't you do it like most other people and go from the body to the caliper?

they are slightly too long as they were made up to fit to the top wishbones
so if i dont fix them the will catch the front cycle wing brackets and the rear bottom wishbones

Is there no way that you could put a twist/kink in them to take up the slack?

i'm watching this with interest as i've heard other people have to do this and i'm about to weld on the bracket to mount the pipes to the chassis (wondering the best place to avoid having to do this).
