No mechanic, but what the f... is this?

[jkburg]

So just noticed this hanging from the back of my Bronco (don't think it was there when I bought it). Your assistance is appreciated as I am somewhat mechanically uninclined.

PS. I have a duh story that I would love to share regarding my dealer installing accessories. If I get a good answer here, I will share it; classic.

Are you...are you asking us what brake lines are?

That's all i can think you'd be referring to here

Looks like your break line to me.

Like others said brake lines…

or maybe your asking about the track bar/stabilizer bar?…

Cut those lines and see what happens.



Just joking .. don't cut them. If you can't tell they are brakes lines then don't look under your vehicle.

All i see is cardboard covered resin separating due to cost cutting measures.. oh wait.. that’s my reoccurring nightmare clouding my vision.

Can't see a lot from the pictures.

I see a brake line clamp that appears to be uninstalled, possibly two of them. Should be pretty easy to see where the bolts go to hold the line clamps in position, or take it in for the service people to fix.

If the hard line isn't properly clamped it can move down along with the flex line and that could be what you see now that you didn't notice previously. I appears that the flex line is too low and could catch on objects when off road and pull the line from the caliper. I'd keep it on the street until you get it properly reinstalled.

Maybe someone who actually has their Bronco can see where their line is bolted in place and let you know.

Thank you for properly rotating the photos so the rest of us can figure out what we're looking at

Oh don't worry about those. Ford loves adding extra connectors that don't quite attach anywhere. That's why a lot of us had to spend 20 minutes finding a way to ziptie a radiator hose to keep it off a pulley despite there being 3 or more connectors that were just flapping in the breeze.

It's a feature, not a bug.
