Son in laws truck, haven’t got my eyes on it yet.
Rust has ate through where the retainer clip holds them to the frame.
Anybody ran into this yet, and what did it take for repair?

there making s.s. master brake line kits pre-bent these days and they might be doing fuel lines also . these 99-up trucks have a massive problem with this .

dorman has the kits for under 200 most doing 150-175 for the brake line kit .

If it’s rusted close to the fuel filter dorman makes repair kits about 18 inches long, one end hooks to the filter and use a compression fitting on the other end. Pretty much any parts store will stock those
