i assume they are stainles?



if so, once bent, they are hardworked and usually break if tried to be bent again.. so for the fellers saying just bend them, A: it doesn't need to be per Nathaniel. and B: its possible to break it and be totally fubar anyway.. if not stainless, then it isn't as critical..

From what I understand, it's not that the lines don't line up with one another, it's that the tee is blocking the injection pump harness connection from being able to connect. Yeah, that does suck. Wasn't the truck running at one point with these lines though? maybe loosen all applicable connections, position stuff where you need it, and work your way back. As far as the tubing goes, I'm pretty sure it's not stainless. I have "adjusted" them after the fact, and it's no big deal.

Wanna bend your own lines? the tool in the link above is all you need. Then you can massage your lines to perfection. Jussayin'

If you need to buy lines, and Elite doesn't have any, you might give these guys in the link above a try. I'd recommend just buying the straight stuff at your specified length and bend it yourself. I'm sure there are other suppliers as well.

You may have had them on Nethanial but this chit didn't line up. Red rebent both and now it looks like this.

LOL, I told Red last night I would go buy a tubing bender. He bent it in a vice somehow enough to make it clear finally.
