Airline Routing

What is the best routing for the airline from the front bags. I have a couple of pushin bulkhead fittings that i could use through the crossmember but that is just more places to leak. I have never seen a compresion type bulkhead fitting.

Re: Airline Routing

I just drilled through the crossmember's spring pocket towards the rear and used a 90 PTC on the bag. Shoved a thick rubber grommet in there and called it good. For some added comfort, you can slide a piece of rubber hose over the air line where it goes through the hole. After that, it just runs down the frame rails.
