The three way splitter sits on top of the rear frame crossmember, adjacent
to the left side frame rail. The brake line follows the left rail (as you
have installed it), then sort of dog legs up and around the side of the left
rail and over the top of the crossmember where it feeds to the lower left
fitting. The top fitting feeds the short left rear brake line and the right
side fitting connects to the right rear brake line. The brake line doesn't
get anywhere near the shock mounting bracket as far as I could see.
