tibrens dont fit

can anyone help,timbrens web site says its the right get,but the brake lines are in the way.i have the pegs coming off the blocks under the springs,and the directions say i have to use the bottom part of the kit.there is no way they fit without bending the brake lines,and even i could get the bottom half on they look to be to long.

Did you get a 2wd kit instead of a 4wd kit?

Sorry out of suggestions.
I've only seen a couple Timbrens mounts and not on Dodge trucks. Don't remember if they had to mod brake line routings.

You mite have to repostion your brake lines to install the kit...its no biggie just move them a little so they dont come in contact with the timbren kit parts

if i remember rite from when i put mine on i did have to move the lines alittle bit, mine turned out long to,they said it was from the factory springs saging from age and use, measure the difference and they will exchange for shorter ones for you,they are great people to work with, or you could just run them but it will be a bumpy ride,i think theres is suppose to be like 3/4'' of an inch space.i left mine long so rear doesnt sag much when i am towing witch is quite often ,i just live with it bumpy
