Power steering lines

Has anyone has to replace the power steering lines that go from behind the master cylinder of the brakes down. I was under the hood and see mine is seeping from the crimp where the rubber meets the metal portion. Is there a bleeding procedure that needs to be done when this line is removed? I'm a little nervous about removing it for fear I will get air in the unit and have no brakes or steering. Truck is an 05 250 4wd cc if it matters.

You'll be just fine to replace the line and service it back up using these instructions. It will be a good time to replace the fluid wile your in there. The hydroboost system isn't too fussy just don't let the pump run dry.
