Just asking because I'm adding ABS to my car, and trying to decide how best to run things to the rear hubs and calipers. I'm leaning towards dropping both brake hoses and the speed sensor wires above the center section and then running them down the axle tubes to the rear hubs.

The rear brake lines run down the sides outside the frame rail.
The wiring comes off the ABS module as twister pairs. Goes through a bulkhead connector the interior. Those wire join the rear compartment wiring harness that has the tail light, fuel pump…
The rear wheel speed wires (twister pair) pass through to a harness on the rear axle. At the connector we swap from normal wire (twisted pair) to a tougher encapsulation wire that goes the wheel speed sensors.
The OE style encapsulation wiring is hard to find and I had to purchase 1000 feet of it to get some. Nice stuff.
I’ll get a photo soon
