Prop valve placement..

Here are two more pics... the last one is of what I need to connect or replace. I have a short hard line with the correct fittings to work but I need a soft or flex line so it will not break when the suspension moves..

Well, I think you might have been better off mounting the brass fittings on the frame like originally done and ran the crossover hardline on the chassis and not the rear.

For what you have now, this is my idea for the "easiest" solution.

-Mount the body hose back on the rear like it's supposed to be at the vent tube/bolt. 
-Block off the driver-side port with a plug.
-Make/run a new short hardline from that to the junction block on the pass side there.

Not ideal, but it will work.

I'd also secure those hardlines a bit better as well, esp at the ends.

Okay, I didn't think about that until I looked under my F-150. I just ran the hardlines the way the car came (when I got it back in 93) That would save a little headache.

Your short line idea is what I planend to do. Thanks...
