Keeping it topped up to the brim

Just ordered 10 metres of 6mm od air hose. Gonna replace my air lines as we have a three day weekend coming up next week. I'm gonna guess the rears are a pita to feed through.
 
With the airlines, I always say if they aint broke, don't fix them.
When I first got it, it was on Shraeder valves. Sorted the valve block and compressor, but when I took the valves off the end of the pipes were buggered. Had to trim a fair amount off to get a usuable length into the collets. Consequently I've never been happy with the amount of tension on a couple of hoses going into the block. Pipe is cheap, I'm just worried about the routing.

There are 3 pipes going to the rear along the top of the left side chassis leg, it might be possible to attach the new pipe to the old and pull it in. The fronts should be easy, re-route if necessary.

They were sealed but had a bow in them, some love from a heatgun and some new sealant should see them good..
