Brake line ruptured
Does anyone know if the brake line running along the drivers side frame rail from the front to the back is 3/16” or 1/4”? I sprung a leak and need to replace ASAP. By the way it’s a 2001 f250 5.4L. Thanks in advance

I unbolt one end .. and take 6 inches with fitting to the auto parts store...
using a tape measure.. measure how long of a line you need.. and add a few inches...
as you can not make real nice sharp bends... like the factory does.
NO GUESSING....
no strangers giving good or bad information...

There are a number of threads in this section on this exact issue. A number of us have done this repair. I've done a couple of them, including my own.
Just do an "ADVANCED SEARCH" in this sub-forum for "Ni-copp" to dig them up. Do another for "nicopp" (no hyphen) to find many more.
