MFI Axle layout

[Woodchuck]

Could someone post a picture of how MFI does the brake lines that cross the rear axle. All of my components have been removed and I have to do all new brakes from the actuator back. I'm just wondering how they tied it to the axle to cross over and transition to the flex that goes to the caliper. Mine is the 2007 model but others should be similar.

I will snap some pics as soon as i get home.

Awesome! Thanks.

Perfect, thanks again. That actually answers more questions that I would have had in the future.

@Woodchuck it kind of made me chuckle when you asked about this because I always thought it was kind of a cheesy solution for MFI to use "wire ties" to secure the brake lines. If you go with the original method, make sure to use some heavy duty ties because I've had several of the original ones break and fall off over the years. It would be awful to have the brake lines torn off because a few wire ties fell off.

@itsdgm That's a good point. Since mine isn't there that's what was throwing me off, I kinda assumed it was run through the axle or frame tube but didn't see any holes. I think I'll try to find something similar to a one hole strap for conduit.
