Today I did the explorer spring swap, with an add a leaf. The brake line that runs down the frame, goes under the leaf, and into the drivers side drum is tight against the leaf spring...any ideas of what I can do to put slack in that?

You must be talking about the e-brake cable. Route it differently. I don't have any pics handy, maybe someone else has some. I think you can disconnect up at the frame under the drivers seat area to route it different, but it's been a while since I've worked on the cables.
Good luck,

Richard

Ill have to take a look at it, but yes I believe it Is the e-brake cable.
