Question 1999 Silverado brake line routing on frame

1999 Silverado extended cab 4x4 with ABS. I removed all my brake lines. What order are they installed on the frame in the engine compartment. There are plastic clips that have four slots. What line is closest to the engine in order to the outside of the truck? A picture would be great if you have one of your truck in this area of the frame. If not a description would be fine. Thanks.

I solved the problem. If anyone has a truck that has the brake lines going over the frame at the point it goes under the cab, this may help you. The new SS lines I got do fit the 99-06 trucks, but the routing seems to have changed slightly over these years. The lines now go between the cab mount and the frame rail at the point it goes under the cab. This messed me up because the bends did not fit one of my plastic clips closest the the cab. Once I seen a video that showed the new routing of the later models, I had no trouble fitting them in. Because I did not have the correct clip for that area, I used a rubber hose around the bundle of lines so that it did not ride against the frame or cab creating a wear point.
