I too used zip ties. You can also use hose clamps if you want something more robust.

if you want to be really fancy, you could drill and tap holes in the k-member to install brake line clips with bolts.

If you want to do a nice job and not have it fail you could use Rubber clamps. They are available at Princess Auto and I'm guessing Harbor Freight has them as well.
