And here
Jeff has since told me that he intended for the lines to go under the cylinder and (oops forgot the part about the double hose clamp bracket attached to the cylinder) the double hose clamp bracket to be placed at the rod end edge of the cylinder.

I didn't want to cut the zip tie holding the woven cover on the hydraulic lines so I taped the wire to a piece of rod and pulled it through
