Tom:
Your fears are unfounded. The lines will feed nicely from either side. You
may have to gently arc a line to get it through but you can straiten it
after it is in place.
In my plane I formed all the lines, removed them, polished them with
Scotchbrite and painted them with clear Krylon before flushing them with
shop air and reinstalling them. Install them starting from the centerline
outboard.
Another handy thing is to make up a fitting that adapts your shop air supply
to a -4 fitting. If you pressurize your system with air first you can check
it's function and for leaks (using kiddie soap bubble solution) before you
fill the system with MIL-H-5606 hydraulic fluid. This avoids a big mess if
you have to change anything. It is also quite handy to use the air pressure
to counterbalance the main gear while working on the gear door cams.
