I have a set of them on my 02 Kalahari (was supposed to be the 50mm TF SS brake lines), but oh well. I installed the 40mm extended SS brake lines & I matched up the angle of the OEM lines (I’ve seen some people mount them aiming straight back which to me seems wrong as it could cause a kink/pinch point). Make sure to route them to where they go away from the coil springs during suspension travel. I’ve seen several people pinch their new lines from improper routing & the coil spring goes town on it.
I used my 15ft cable lead, toggle switch to the ABS relay to quickly power bleed the system. Entire job was right at an hour and I took my time. “If” you plan on doing some serious flexing with the rear swaybar removed/disconnected I’d highly recommend extending the rear ABS sensor cables. Quickest/most cost effective way to do it, is to install a pair of front ABS sensors on the rear. You can get a set online from 20-30.00 vs the 200.00 Wabco ABS sensor extensions.
Overall I’m very happy with them!
