Jim - thanks for the heads up. I have SPF 3033 and checked the lines (have 1200 miles on the car). I have the upgraded brakes (6-pot fronts). The brakes (and lines ) were installed by the dealer (Hillbank). The lines are SS braided with reinforcement boots at the ends of the lines. The front brake lines were fine - no evidence of rubbing yet - but I did bend the frame braket to create a bit more clearance between the lines and the A-arm. The rear brakes were a different story. They were routed over an A-arm bolt joint and showed slight rubbing wear. Also the lines were tie wrapped to the A-arm and the contact point also showed wear. The wear was very minimal so I covered the lines at both werar points with 5/16 fuel line hose - should be fine now.

Thx!

Matt
