In the midst of installing 2 new gas lines on 75 Cutlass.
I bought Prebent steel lines from inline.
I got the old lines and clamps out.
After dropping the dual exhaust and dual hump tranny brace down, I have the new lines in position and1st 4 new clamps on, not sure if I can do the one beside the right rear wheel.
Taking a break before I tackle the last 4 clamps out of soreness. Car is jacked up on 6x6’s
The clamp up behind the back seat isn’t going to be easy.
I will feel better they are replaced when it’s done. My old steel brake lines failed a few years ago.
I can tell you, it’s not an easy job so far without a hoist and body on. Take your time. I had to drill 2 holes to access the clamp bolts from inside the car beside the right rear tire and up behind the middle of rear seat.
I will be glad when it’s done.
I probably could have unbolted them on the right side and jacked the body up. I didn’t want to get into that to be honest. That would have probably lead me to change all the mounts out.
Here are the holes I drilled to remove the bolts out of the clamps. Used 1/4” drive 1/2” socket. Pushed the 1/4” extension through into the 1/4” drive 1/2” socket.
If I can’t get the clamps back on those 2 areas, they may have to wait until I or someone else puts them when they do the body mounts sometime.
