You NEED the dampner clamp on the lines, or you will continue to break the lines from the vibration from the engine. A visit to a salvage yard should get you a set.

I could call this guy for you,

Ford 7.3L Diesel International 1988-1997 F250 F350 E250 E350

and see if he'll sell just the injector lines and clamps. They are light so shipping shouldn't be too bad. Let me know.

Wow, those look way easier to deal with than the stock units. I have such a hard time getting everything to line up and end up dropping the nut in the intake valley a million times.

Yeah, that's what I thought when I saw them. The stock ones are a real PITA with that bolt. If someone was smart, they may be able to weld the bolt in place on the stock unit. Too bad I don't have a welder.
