Starting becoming a real pain in the ass, so I aborted the install for now. Wondering if anyone else using this skid had issues installing. Thanks !
Damn video makes it look like it's so easy. Haha

Did you assemble it all with the nuts loose? Front upper bracket is in front of the lower one?
For the hard line, I see in the video they disconnected the bracket on the axle and had it out of the way. Are you saying it pushes against the axle bracket when you reinstall it? With hard line you can carefully bend it a little to modify its routing and/or slip some rubber hose around where it makes contact with the brackets.
