Troubleshooting
Clip does not fit brake line.
Verify that the brake line is indeed 5/16" or 8mm. These clips are not designed for other tube sizes.
Clip will not secure to mounting point.
Ensure the mounting surface is clean and appropriate. Use compatible fasteners (screws, rivets) suitable for your vehicle's mounting point. Fasteners are not included with the clips.
Brake line feels loose after installation.
Double-check that the clip is fully seated on the brake line and securely fastened to the vehicle. Ensure the correct hole size (8mm or 7mm) is being used for the specific line diameter.
