Question Replacing a Brake Line

I have a 1980 Ford F-100 with a 302 / 3-speed tranny. My driver's side front
metal brake line is skeetin out brake fluid whenever I hit the brake pedal. Obviously I need to change this line out. How do I do it in intricate detail if
at all possible ???

First of all we have a forum designed just for your truck.

It is the 1980 - 1986 F-Series Trucks Forum & you can find it at the link below.

As for the brake line. Take your wheel off and see what needs to be replaced. Replace the line in the same exact manner that it is in now.
