lmc ss brake line delima

i received my much anticipated ss brake line kit from lmc last thursday, i ordered the two piece front to rear set and the complete master cylinder and front line set basically everything except for the rear axle lines (should have ordered them also, but thats another story). anyway all was going well till i noticed that my new lines are made to go over the crossmember/under motor mounts to what supposed to be a tab on the front of the crossmember on each side (driver and pass) for the ss lines and the rubber lines going to the caliper to pass through. my tabs are on the rear of the crossmember, @#$%, i thought all 71 c10 brake lines were routed this way, to the front am i wrong? plus my line going to the rear seems a bit short it stops about 1' shy of the rear end in the frame? the only other thing is there is a very precisely bent ss line with a 90 degree bend and a 45 degree hook at the end, has anyone else encountered these problems. i need some good detailed picks of 71 lwb base lines and hoses if anyone has any, please help these lines are holding up the great progress ive been making from freshly painted frame to totally assembled frame in 1/2 a day now im stuck!
