SC fuel line leak help; in front near rack

[mcdanjammsc]

So after searching the forum I still need an assist. My return line to the fuel tank has begun to weep and now drip. It looks like there is really no way to repair this line and no option but to replace from engine to front through the hell hole. My only hope is to flair the input metal portion to fuel tank, cut bad portion and hose clamp back together? It looks if i do replace the whole line I will have to remove trans cross member or more? Sorry no pics, I should have taken some while it was on the lift across town. Leak discovered while upgrading to Turbo Tie Rods today; one project down but new one pops up... Just the way it goes. Thanks in advance for any input.

This is what the stock fuel lines/hoses look like up front after a few years...........



Fittings are rusted & corroded. Depending on where the "weep" is located, you can cut back the Hose crimp.........



and replace the rubber return hose over to the tank with this.........



Of course you will need the proper Norma or Oetiker clamps at the tunnel end.

For details, please email me. No PM's, no PM's, no PM's.
