Fox remote reservoirs rubbing on KDSS lines?

Almost done installing my new shocks and noticed the reservoir hose was contacting the KDSS hardline on the driver side. No matter how I push or pull the hose or the hardline they still touch. Also, the metal hose fitting coming out of the reservoir is touching the frame. I'm worried about vibrations causing abrasive damage to these components.

At first I got some split wire conduit and zip tied it around the hose and thought I'd call it a day but these shocks were expensive so I figure I should try to do it right.

I might try again to mount the reservoir with the DSC adjuster facing up, I initially tried it this way but the hose wouldn't behave. I did see another user have it working https://www.toyota-4runner.org/2168113-post9.html

Another idea I had is to cut this KDSS bracket:

Which should let me push the KDSS lines back inwards about 1/2". I think that would be sufficient to eliminate the rubbing and I could just zip tie it together for now while I figure out a custom bracket. But it still wouldn't solve the issue of the metal hose fitting rubbing the frame.

Anyone else with Fox 2.5 remote resis and KDSS care to chime in?

On the instructions I think I remember it saying you had to modify the kdss bracket for everything to fit.

Sorry for hijacking the thread..
[MENTION=267267]klk87[/MENTION]: would you mind sharing a photo of mounted front reservoir brackets?

The reason I'm asking is that I've got Kings with reservoirs and after upgrading to 285/70R17 Falken Wildpeaks I've got rubbing against reservoirs at full lock both left or right. King's brackets are mounted horizontally in front of the wheel well on vehicles w/ KDSS. I'm trying to figure out if there is an alternative way to mount the reservoirs..

Sorry for not replying, been in the process of moving so computer time limited. Did you get your brackets figured out? I can snap a couple of pictures tomorrow if you could still use them.

I remember Accutune told me that without spacers the tires would rub on the reservoirs, so I installed some 1.25" Spidertrax spacers.
