I have searched everywhere for fuel lines for my 1990 FJ62, and cannot find them. If anyone has any ideas please help me! I was told by a good friend to just get custom lines made, but the first quote I got was $3300 which to me is insane. Please please help me I got this car for Christmas and I can't have a SECOND Fj62 die on me within the first month. Thanks y'all!
 
Jesus, get another shop or three to give you a quote, $3,300 is nuts. I am a bit far off to be of help.
 
Every line, hard lines, soft lines - what? What line actually needs replacing?

x2. You probably need the hard lines coming from the fuel pump bracket. This assembly is available from Cruiser parts.net for $325.
 
DIY kit. It is really not a hard job :banana:. Patience is the thing you'll require most of all. Use metal coat hangers to get forms or better yet, duplicate existing if you can.

Yes thank you I need the metal lines, this is really helpful. I can just order the metal tubing and bend it myself right?

I have made my own brake lines before. It isn't a hard job just one require patience. If you get flustered walk away. With long runs you will end up having to redo and have waste if you get frustrated.

You can order from various places and some box stores carry the tubing as well. You can do a variety of different methods to rerun the lines. You can route some of the harder places if you can't bend with tubing (must be fuel injected rated for high pressure and make sure it wont rub against anything). Or duplicate the original.

Call a regular shop and tell them you will take the old tubing to them and you need it duplicated. Shouldn't be more than a few hundred. Basically an hour or two of labor and the cost of materials.
