I am fixing to make my lines for the hydro valve to ram. Looking at it I just cant seem to decide on the best rout to run the lines, I think I may flip the valve 180 and run them infront of the motor instead of down the outside of the frame.

The main issue is what to do with the excess line thats needed for axle droop. Im running the ram straight to the knuckle, and this may not be the best setup, but its what Ive got. This makes the lines somewhat short, and not a good place to "hang" the excess line outsife the frame.

The ram is just setting there for mockup (just using the rodend to hold it in place), I still need to build the truss/mount on the axle, and I have a machined spacer to put on the steering arm for more clearence over the springs.

My steering valve and ram came with lines (i bought it used), but there long as hell and would need to be routed all over to keep them out of the way, or I would just use the lines I have.

Anybody got any picts or links to a similar setup for visual aid?

Facing up or in would probably work better. Why not cut to the correct length and put a new fitting on or reuse the old one if you have that kind of fitting.
 
What is your location? If you would be interested might could work out a trade on lines? I have a set for 6" lift toyota with same orbital location, both ends are #6 jic. I am going 16" travel air shocks and need the length.
