Default Installing lindby bars on 2017 heritage with ABS

2017 heritage with ABS brakes. The brake lines run down the 2 front Frame tubes. When you install it says to take the clip off the left side and slide bars in behind brake line so it doesn’t pinch when you install engine guards.

I took clip off from tube and it just doesn’t seem to be enough room to get left side of engine guard behind it? The is another bolt that goes up into steering bearings that holds the brake lines in place. Can that bolt be removed to get more slack in the brake line?

I hope someone understands what I just wrote! Hahahahaha

stumped! And engine guards are 3 bolts and your e done.

thanks in advance.
