Default KB cold pipe routing?

Anyone have pics of how to route the pipes in KB's intercooler kit, the kit where the intercooler is mounted low between the frame rails. I'm having issues with the passenger side hitting the radiator hose, inner fender, and other misc things. And the drivers side is hitting the sway bar. I am using the pics in this thread for reference: https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...ed-kit-426570/

The radiator hose needs to be trimmed (shortened).

Definitely take the fender well liner out to install the pipes. The AC hard line needs to be tweaked a bit in my case.

We used that kit in a gmt 900 and no problems. It goes down from the turbo inbetween the frame and fender and back up through the center of the radiator. If u have a clutch fan than im probobly not helping.

I got a hold of Kyle, he said the intercooler kit I bought (from a member) is one of the first ones he built for a 4WD truck which I guess has the sway bar in a different location. And that the radiator hose needs to be shortened to clear the pipe off the turbo.
