Description of the problem	rear steel brake lines mounted to frame for rear wheels coming into contact with rear sway bar. Noted noise. This noise is a light "clacking" metal sound and could only be heard at moderate speed when on the trail or going through "dips" on public streets with side window down. While rotating tires suspension is checked. Discovered rub marks on steel brake lines under the frame next to the rear sway bar. Driver's side was worn, passenger side had black paint rubbed off on it. No damage or chafing to either rubber brake lines making final connection to rear hubs. Noted frame clips attached to steel line holding brake line away and into contact zone of sway bar when suspension cycles. Rough measurements between axle and bump stop is about 2/3 cycle when sway bar hits brake line. Estimate suspension does not bottom out or contact bump stop when brake lines are being hit by sway bar. Wrote chrysler an e-mail regarding this issue. After two days received a response that read like a "sales brochure" or "commercial" not acknowledging anything that i had mentioned about the brake lines. Then the second paragraph pointed out i had not complied with a "tow bar" recall and that i should. Which i had last year. The reason i report this now. Last year the jeep was on recall for the front brake lines being rubbed by the inner fender wells. Which was taken care of by a local dealer ship. In retrospect of the front brake line recall. Thought i would bring this to your attention. Might this same model have had a rear brake line routing issue too? In the case you may want a copy of the above mentioned e-mail and response please don't hesitate.
