Default E brake relocation bracket?


Has anyone had issues with the e brake line rubbing the tire? If so how did you guys fix it. Tried searching but I only found things on newer trucks

Do you know what kind of truck you have?

Looks like you have a newer model.

Are these the stock rims on this vehicle? If not, then the offset may not be correct and wheel spacers would be needed.

It’s an 01 supercrew 4x4. Wheels are 17in fuel coupler with a -12 offset

I had this issue with my previous wheels. The bracket on the frame where the cable passes through has another hole in it. I disconnected the cable and routed through that hole and it solved my issues. I can take a picture of the hole later if needed. Hope this helps!

Thanks mike! I know exactly which hole your talking about, saw it earlier when I looked under the truck. I’ll try rerouting through that hole
