drop spindle issues

Alrighty, so my dad and I did a 6 inch flip kit in the rear of his 82 shortbox, and then we moved on to the front suspension. So we get the drivers side spindle and spring in, then my dad looks and realizes that the brake line rubs when you turn. Help please!!! Anyone else had this issue?

Just bend the brake line near the caliper. I just finished doing mine 30 minutes ago.

Pryed it with a small pry bar. It's real stiff so go slow.
