I have a 1978 F700, eaton rear end. I am having trouble finding the rubber brake line that goes from the left frame(over diff) to the top of the diff.I cannot find any stores who can get this part. Any suggestions would be nice. Thanks Joe

 

Try a industrial hydraulic hose and fittings store, many of them can make rubber brake hoses.

There's a company called Inline Tube that carries rubber brake hoses. The have premade hoses (GM and Mopar only), but they can also provides custom hoses. They're a good company to deal with, and they should be able to get you what you need.
