Maybe some zip ties might help yaa. I don't have a leveling system on yet but i used zip ties when my exhaust came to close to some lines in the back. Hope this helps. Others will chime in.

You may be able to tweak the metal part at the caliper as well.

They make a leveling kit for the front that basically drops the spring hangers 2 inches. Other options are you could X code leaf springs which will lift it up some since your original leafs could be tired and sagging a bit.

My 01 came with a rough country leveling kit with all new front leaf springs. I have seen no rub issues with my brake lines.

However, in the off road world with long travel suspensions, we use springs to help pull the brake lines out of the way. That way they can still stretch as needed and the spring will pull them back when not needed.
