Working on the steering linkage and brake lines. I'm mocking up the linkage with dowl rods and noticed that on the u joint connected to the rack, there's a set screw and lock nut that hits the side of the crossmember. I don't want to have to notch it so to solve this, I'm thinking I can shorten the set screw so that when tightened its flush, then use some loctite to keep it from backing out. Any foreseeable problems with this?

Secondly, I need some ideas on where to run the rubber brake lines. In front or behind the spring saddle?

Pics of both the brake lines & linkage setups are appreciated.
