    I was doing some work on my truck recently and unfortunately snapped both of the hard lines that sit above the rear axle, I can’t find a part number anywhere so hopefully someone here might know or a good solution to fix the problem. They connect directly to the brake drum.

    easy to make your own lines, I typically cut the line at the fitting then use a 6point socket to remove the fitting, then use a drill to remove the remains of the brake line. install old fitting on new line, do the flair and repeat on the other line.
    note: hard to get air out of the system if the brake reservoir goes empty.
    tech tip:use a stick between the seat and brake pedal, slide seat forward to Depress pedal about 2-3 inches, this will stop the brake fluid from draining while you replace brake parts like calipers and brake line, (assuming the reservoir never went empty)
