its not a huge job, just get the car up high...like two or three feet

I had the same problem in Jan. and i just cut some longer pieces of 14 inch oak and stook them up under the jacking points. replaced ALL the line. You can gat it in rolls from O'rielly auto parts or most parts stores. get all new fittings, a tubing cutter and a flare tool. The olds used double and bubble flare on the tubing. I also bought a bender and it came in handy but i needed hands in gloves for the tighter complex bends. Actually i had to wear gloves the entire time because i was on cement and it was about 0 F out!!!!!(stiff line) Check your brakes and fuel lines while you are at it, I had to replace mine because a rusty hole spilled gas....then i found the bad brake lines.....have fun...
