Its not too hard to custom make them either with s rather inexpensive flaring tool set. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 2,307 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 2,307 | I used a 6 inch piece of fuel hose with a slit in it so you can slide it on the hose . Seems to work good and doesn't kink the line only difficulty is it sometimes slides off when bending .just have to go slow. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2016 Posts: 107 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2016 Posts: 107 | Thanks Guys, I am going with coppe- nickle lines and it will be right, THanks Mike | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 289 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2007 Posts: 289 | I used a set of stainless lines when restoring my '52 GMC 1/2 ton from Inline Tube and they fit perfectly.
