2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission 95 3500 2 wheel drive fuel line leak

[CHellmer]

I have a fuel line under the driver's side that has been leaking for a year now and I want to fix it. I had the truck on my hoist and it's the suction line from the tank. Its the line that has a braided line that is factory crimped to the steel line. Whats the best way to repair this. The dealer told me that the new parts are $250. 00 . Is there anouther way to repair it rather than replace the lines?

Thank You

When you changed to the hose did you elimanate the steel lines?

I had the same problem with my '95. It didn't cost anywhere near that much to do it, if you do it yourself.
