I see that this topic has been posted before however I didn't see what I was looking for.

I have the earlier steering brace design without the oval cut out. And the brace cross-member mount comes out right on top of the fuel vapor line.
The FV line is surrounded by the brake lines so there's not much room for relocation. I was able to install the front brace.
For others that have installed this brace, did you cut and reroute the FV line?

The bar on mine is right up against the brake proportioning valve. I loosened the bolts on the valve to allow a little freedom.
