In picture 4, the brake line shot from top down, the line should not be twisted like that. That line appears to be twisted at least 180 degree end to end. It needs to be reinstalled.
The lines can be curved, but the way it curls in the picture indicates one end has been rotated. If you disconnect one end or the other the line will naturally "untwist" itself. It should be installed with out that tension on it. Matt

I dont suppose there is a template for trimming the dust shield is there? Looks like a small amount from the top and more on the bottom.

I don't think so.

Gotcha! Unfortunately I have seen them "twisted" during install. May not cause an issue, but when it come to brakes or a unnecessary strain on a line I don't like to take any chances.

We know SS-braided lines are better at not bubbling up with high heat. That said, I've never seen OEM rubber lines fail, but I've seen more than one SS line fail on cars (one of which, my C5 Z06). These lines are more fragile to external hits like a rock hitting them, which might break their protective coat, and worse, cause it to break. We cannot avoid the line from getting hit by a rock, but we can at least make sure it is not under unnecessary tension, and that it does not rub anywhere during suspension movements.
