Can Anyone Post Picture of Brake line routing with Sub Frame Connectors??

[68mmcharger]

I just purchased the sub-frame connectors from XV Motorsports and am trying to figure out brake tubing and e brake cable routing. Can anyone with these same type of frame connectors post pictures of their routing of tubing and cable?

Looking at the pictures, the frame connector edge covers the original hole the brake tube went through. Not sure how to route tube through without running tube through a new hole in torsion bar frame. Also, seems like you will have to feed brake tube through what ever hole you make in connector. Isn't this kind or tricky if you are using prebent replacement tubing??

Thanks....Kevin

Same problem with fuel line on passenger side.  Original torsion bar cross member hole covered by frame connector.

Don't have any pictures, but a suggestion.  I have heard some people just re-route both. Me, I think I am going to cut an opening to slide the brake line and fuel lines through at the beginning edge and then maybe fill that area in with some small welded in pieces.

Kevin, I used US Car Tool's subframe connectors, which are very similar to yours.     http://www.uscartool.com/Bframeconn/index.html    Their connectors have a slot on the front of the connectors that hits the front frame rails right where the holes are. Take a look at the pics on their site. Their suggestion is to replace the lines first then weld the connectors in. Thats what I did, new brake and fuel lines.  I fed the lines through the holes but left them loose so I could finish the floor without them in the way. Sorry I don't have any pics to show you.

Yup, something like that should work for you.  Shouldn't be to hard to cut out that little bit of metal.

Thanks for the feedback.  Here's what I ended up with.
