Ok so I got them in today and ran into this little problem. Looking for idea on what to do.

The fuel and brake lines are in the way. I can put them under the crossmember, really bad idea! :explosion

Cut them double flare them and put new lines in that run up and arruound the crossmember mount. Or I could cut the tabs at an angle and move them away from the 205 and maybe get enough clearance. ANy other ides or sugestions?

The fuel lines are not that big of a deal I can run FI rubber line with clamps easily enough, I have done it for a couple of years now on the old ghost. It is the brake lines I'm concerned about.....
 
I had to deal with that as well when I did my cage tie-ins. I ended using some thin square tube to work as a spacer and moved the lines away from the rails. But that was like 1".

In your case I'd probalby cut, bend, flare and get make some small pieces to go between the gap.

Those old brake lines are a real pain to flare.
