2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission getting ready to restore my 96 2500

[kenny61]

hello everyone I bought my 96 Ram 2500 brand new and took it off the road on2013 when i got my charger. I took myself off the road in jan 2015 when I got hit by a car and spent a month in a coma, im felling better now but the truck diddnt heal its self so i must help it. Currently I need brake and fuel lines so I can start and move it. A quivk google search and I am unable to find pre bent stainless lines. any Ideas/ suggestions would be greatly appreciated

You may be able to find plastic but the originals are steel. My truck had them on it when I bought it. I ground them out and couldn't believe how large the hole is. Over a 1/2". A Grip-Sert to fit the hole would probably be for a 1/2" or 7/16" bolt.

mine are plastic. had the truck since new. i thought my nutserts were smaller ill have to pull the kit out thank you

They must have changed them between '96 and '98. My '98 was ordered with the tow mirrors also.

I used the nickel-copper lines and bent them myself.

You are correct they're steel with some type of coating. My vision got messed up as a result of my accident
