flexibl brake line going to callipar on baggged sub

On my 72 sub when I ride real low or let teh suspension all the way out the flexible brake line that has a mount on the crossmemer on its way to the calliper mounted on the spindle gets stretched tot eh max. I am concerned it will eventually tear or brake. What have you done to correct this? relocate the mount? cut it loose and just zip tie out of the way? Any suggestions or pics would be appreciated.

Jeff

When I did my cross member modifications, I went ahead and relocated the mount farther out towards the wheel to give it a little more slack. I just cut it off with a cut-off wheel and welded it back on in the new location.
