================================
Nope. It depends mostly on where you have mounted your prop valve. Is
it convenient to run a line from each front port to each caliper, or
is the valve far enough from the front that it would be easier to run
one line to the crossmember and Tee from there?

There will be plenty of fluid flow either way.
