Anyone else have this problem with Skyjacker?

Take a look at this. Where the ABS sensor line runs up the spindle, there is no clearance going past the inside of the brake rotor and its cutting/melting through the ABS line. After much talk with them, they told me to grind away at my Spindle on my brand new $2000 Lift kit and make an indent for the line to run up. WTF???

Anybody else have this problem??

Maybe the cable routed behind the spindle.??..? I don't know, haven't been under there in a while.

I don't think that has anything to do with the lift but maybe the installation. I have a rize but still you can see how the lines are routed to the factory components.





Somethings not right with yours, and Don't grind anything.

Thanks for the pics, they helped a lot. Im just wondering if i need to run the ABS line straight back like yours, instead of straight up. Im tearing it apart tonight.

Hey, let us know how it work out. It shouldn't be hard. I can't believe that skyjacker told you to grind a channel! WTF!
