I started off running 3/16 stainless steel, but changed my mind to steel coated lines, the colour is much nicer and looks better against the chassis. The steel lines are far easier to bend, fit and flare.
I bought a K-Tool flaring tool, and had a few goes at routing the lines till I settled on the final position.
I was also a bit worried about the proposed CR rear brake hose location, probably would have been fine, but the flex hose needs to be deformed a bit and tied away from its natural set position to avoid touching the rim, so I changed the location of the hose end for better clearance.

This is the Front LH Brake Hard Line coming across from the RH Front Brake Line 3 way.
The line exits at the side frame for the suspension arms where it connects to the flexible hose.
In this pic you can see another one of my tube mounts, the lower 1/2" hole is for my Oil Cooler return line.
The Front LH Brake Flexible hose fitted to the chassis side wall.
The Flex Hose has a bow in it to allow enough length to cope with lock to lock steering.
Front LH Caliper banjo connection.
Brake hoses made by BrakeQuip in Pakenham, see Lindsey the owner for good support and quality components.
Rear Brake line travels along the drivers side chassis rail along side my enclosed battery cable.
The chassis clamps are my own design milled from 6061 Aluminium with a 4" radius to suit the chassis.
Tumbled in ceramic to polish and debur before being clear anodized for a Titanium look, then fitted to Rivnuts inserted into the chassis,
The black insulators are fitted to all brake and fuel lines lathed up from plastic rod.
Both tubes sneak between the body floor and chassis rail.
Brake tube travels along the upper rear control arm mount to a 3 way on the rear of the chassis.
The Caliper flex line exits one of the 3 way ports eliminating the provided chassis mount.
The set on the flex hose clears the suspension arms and spring / shock assembly.
Flex hose fitted to the Rear AP Racing Caliper.
3 way fitted on the rear upper control arm mount.
Drilled and tapped a stud into the mount, then fitted 3 way and flanged nut.
The line then continues across the chassis to the LH rear caliper.
Another 3 way fitted on the LH rear control arm mount, 1 port plugged, the other port used for the Caliper Flex Line.
