Ron is on the right track.

But we don't run wires or brake lines through it. We run the 2 #8 fuel lines (Supply & Return) as well as the #6 air line for the Air Jax. Running the fuel lines in the frame is simply better protection. We use 1-3/4" mandrel bent tubing at each end of the frame rail to curve the hoses up & in ... the way we want ... to make sure they stay away from dangerous stuff.

The wiring is ran under the floor in a 1" open space between the bracing structure & the belly pan. The brake lines use special Stainless AN #3 bulkhead fittings to also route through the front dog legs & rear 2x3 crossmember ... and into the 1" open space between the bracing structure & the belly pan.
