I removed my a/c hoses in 1988 and cannot remember if they ran over or under the export brace . I sure would like some help if anyone knows the answer. I am trying to get my car finished    Thanks James

Nothing runs over the export braces.

+1 . There were factory rubber straps that held the hoses to the export brace.

+1  There are reproduction straps available but you better buy them by the gross as they break very easily... :(
I support them with velcro straps unless I'm being judged.
