As you may have figured out, 2511 does not have the E-brake bracket to contend with. The cable system has been removed in favor of a line-loc-style hydraulic valve. Yes, I know, this is just a parking brake not a legal E-brake, but that is what it was like when purchased by me.
Your problem pipe could be cut off to a shorter length; yes, you'll lose the end bead but other owners have said it is not needed if hoses are well clamped.
And yes, you could move the tubing support bracket.
Just curious - where did you purchase these tubes and have you asked them what the heck is going on?
