Suggestions needed: brake lines still rubbing...

[peter at thescirocco.com (Peter)]

When I installed the front stainless lines on my '81 right before Cincy, I
set the lines so that they would stay away from the wheels. Loosen the 11mm
steel brake line fitting from the ss line(14mm,if it's a newer Autotech
line, or ~15mm if it's an older one) and then adjust it so that the ss line
is twisted slightly away from the wheel.

Subject: Suggestions needed: brake lines still rubbing...

Autotech SS front brake lines, I recently swapped the front shocks so the
brake line "brackets" are facing the correct direction (silly previous owner
;), and even running the brake lines through the brackets, they still rub on
my tires when turning any more than one full revolution of the steering
wheel.  Tire sizes are 190 60 14.
Anyone have any suggestions how to prevent any wear?  Or keep the line from
rubbing?  It'd be a bad situation if EITHER rubbing components broke
(blowout, no brakes).
Thanks all!
