Page 1-2 and 1-3 of the service manual shows routing.
There are no brackets or clamps between where they come through the floor and the bulkhead at the front doghouse.

The grommets in the floor hold the hoses up.
Probably time to get new grommets. I'd take carefull measurements and check the hardware store.
For a temp fix, you can prop up the hoses so the weight isn't hanging, and wrap electrical tape around the hoses so it forms a bulge that catches the top of the grommet.
