hi landcruiser lovers
I have a ld/cr 79 series with airlift air bags on removing a rear wheel i discovered that the flexi brake pipe behind disc was rubbing on air bags
whats a good way to solve this problem? put a split wireing cover!
cheers reggy2

I would pull the pipe away from the airbag reggy.
I think if you put split wireing covering over the brake pipe, you will just create another rub point on the airbag.
Get rid of any rub points, even if it means getting a longer flexi brake hose fitted.

reggy2,
You'll prpbably find that the top end of the hose is held by an angle - you can loosen the bolt holding it and rotate a little. I rotated
mine to get the max length after fitting longer-travel shocks, but maybe you can rote it so the hose is clear of the bag.
Cheers
phil
