Do fe-fcs have a spring and metal clip that hold the front brake hoses away from the tyres? I know my hr had them but my fe ute does not. Huh Huh

They don't have springs.
If the hoses foul tyres or suspension, loosen the pipe to hose connection (slightly) at sub frame and turn hose to allow clearance of tyres (on full lock) and suspension. You may need to temporarily remove the clip to obtain correct adjustment. You won't need to bleed brakes providing you only loosen connection ever so slight.

Yeah I think they did, FB/EK's did & I should imagine the FE/FC would as well & because the front suspensions are similar, would have the same issues - but I could be wrong
