Re: Fuel line routing to fuel rail?

I ended up making a 'heat shield' to go over the filter that bolts on that crossmember in front of the tank. Maybe not necessary...
I had it in the frame rail up near the engine at first, but when I added the frame brace, it was underneath it. I went round and round about where to move it to.

In the end, I ended up with it there because I thought it would be the easiest place to get to it when it came time to change it.
With the QA1 rear suspension I'm not sure if I'll even be able to run the exhaust over and out the back...?

For now, I have it dumping in front of the axle....not where I wanted it but hopefully once the ride height is set and everything is in it's final spot, I can take it over and out the back.
It's hard to visualize where everything will be when the body and bed go on...
Thanks for the eyeball on it...!
