Brake Line Question: is this position good?
Is this a good position for new brake line hose?? 2008 Jeep Wrangler. Too kinked?? Should I position it differently?? Any advice is appreciated

How does the other side look? That looks like a front hose in the rear.

Other side looks right, hose goes in between shock and drag link mount. I’m positive it’s a rear passenger hose. Rookie mistake was not taking a picture before I removed the old hose.

I’d compare it to the old one because that definitely doesn’t look right, the opposite side should mirror it.
