Just made the brackets for the front brake pipes!where they join the chasis to go to the caliper,are they aloud to touch the wishbone?or do they have to be totally free of them?

my s/s flex lines are zip tied to the wishbone and were like this for sva and passed no problem.

They must not chafe (Rub) so fixing them should be fine.
They also must not be able to be pulled tight like bowstrings when the steering is turned. ie no stressing etc.

Mine got thru SVA with cable ties onto the wishbone arms. Dont know what the IVA rules say about this. Worth checking out to be safe.

I am going to put a short length of rubber hose over mine where they pass close to the steelwork .......... and take some cable ties with me to IVA
