    Yes I know the title is....risque lol. However, that being said... I don't know what this part would be since I cannot see the whole truck very clearly and I didn't own a second gen but for a month.

    The tube in the back is cut/torn i don't know what, and I have no idea what it is. Any help?

    Take both pieces off and go to the local auto parts store. Bet they have one that will replace it.

    just a simple vacuum line. Grab 2 ft of the stuff at the autoparts store for a buck or two. Hell they might even have a piece of scrap thats long enough.

    I said what is it, not how do I replace it. Dense people are dense I guess lol.

    Vacuum line for what though is what I'm trying to figure out.

    Thanks for the response @nd4spdbh

    That's a funny way of saying thanks for your help. :smack:

    Did you really need to know exactly what it operates before you could replace it?

    They told you what it was; a vacuum line. From your original post you sounded as though you didn't have a clue. I'm still not convinced that you do.
