I'm mounting the brake hose tabs on the rear and am having trouble finding where others have mounted the tabs with this combination: S550 IRS, non-Wilwood brakes, and the Rear Exit Exhaust.

After trying a few things I like mounting them forward like this:

183982 183983

My question to all of yall: Do I need to be concerned that the up/down motion of the suspension with unscrew the hose from the adapter/tab?

I've been looking at those tabs and wondering why they don't come from the factory welded to the frame .

I'm guessing it has something to do with the different axle options.

No I’ve never seen or heard of that failure happening - the hose and pipe parts of a braking system are remarkably reliable.

But I’m interested if anyone else has seen this!
