Default Rear e-bracket on trailing arm

Does anyone have a clear picture of how they repositioned the rear bracket for the e-brake in order to accomidate wider tires. I know it's rewelded on the top and some have done it on a slight angle, but a picture is worth a thousands words.


Thanks

Cut off the bracket and hook the line back up to it, then move it to where it "wants" to be as not to upset the outer cable. The inner cable is easily adjusted. Weld it there where it fits properly.
