I'm about to wrap up my 68 C10 build and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions/ideas/pictures of how you route the front air lines to the bags? I'm using the standard flexible lines, but do not se a clean way to do it. Thanks in advance, and OBTW, here are some pictures,

Are you not wanting to drill a hole and run the tubing thru a rubber grommet?
Not sure what you are looking for.
You can buy "bulkhead" PTC fittings that would mount in the frame rail.

That's a nice fitting Keith! Pricey too!

. I will have to check into those.
I have no problem drilling a hole in the frame. I'm just trying to figure out if people are coming from the front side of the front crossmember (red) or from the backside of the front crossmember (blue). If you come from the front, you have to loop the air lines 180. If you come from the backside, you have to contend with the brake lines and the shock mounts. Either way, I don't see and easy or clean way to do this.....

Super clean. I say run it bed less

Woodnears · 07-21-2016, 06:21 PM

I most definitely will for a while especially because it will take me a while to build the bed structure to clear the notch and what not.
