very nice. any way you can protect those fittings from the elements?
Why? That is how they are run on every car & truck I have worked on, just look at your truck.
That trailer unless it will be used in snow/ice/salt will never have the elements on them like a car/truck will.
Now if it was an off road rig then I may want to tuck them inside that opening and only have to hose out so the lines do not get cought on anything kicked up by the wheels and pulled off.

Not too bad price wise. $1300 for the complete kit, I thought about the blow out issue but since one wold also probably also destroy the wheel well and everything above it. Not sure it was worth the effort. Also couldn't figure out how to move every thing inside with out drilling a big hole in the frame behind the rear caliper, and that is where one of my frame joints are. I also just upgraded my tire to Goodyear endurance LRD tires so I have more of a safety margin. Got it finished today except test drive and I didn't feel like taking the cover off just to have to reinstall it again.
I would strongly consider putting a plate over the block connected to protect them in the event of a blown out. Everything else is likely to be fine but that "T" is really in harm's way. JMO. Everything else looks spot on.
Ill have to see if I can come up with a sheet metal box to cover the "t" hmm maybe a junction box? Or Ill try to bend one up, I have time nothing planned yet for camping. Although the weather is good enough.
