Default GB Replacement Front fuel supply line

It's time to replace my fuel lines in the engine bay and I will install a Greg Brown Replacement' Style 87-95 Front fuel supply line.

Since it deletes the hardline section it doesn't routes the same way as stock, how do you route that hose around the front of the engine? Pictures?

Thanks

Is there another option to replace that line and keep the hard line section ? Also, are there any threads that show the replacement process in detail ? The intake refresh threads have a few pics but nothing in detail

Right or wrong, here's mine. You should have a "caution" tag on the end that's closest to the fender. Note that, that end is actually two pieces and BOTH have to be tightened once you get the line situated.

Greg also supplies a stock looking version. You have to send your hard line as a donor so he can cut the factory end off the metal at the flex hose and weld on a fitting that mates to the new flex line. Per Greg's usual attention to detail he sends the hard section out for re-plating after the mod so the whole unit looks brand new. He will not even start construction IIRC until he gets your donor part. Too many cores not returned or something similar.

Luc,

Did you receive the instructions from Greg Brown or Roger Tyson? I attached to this post.

I'm sorry you did not get intructions with your order.

Every fuel line we ship comes with instructions. I'll work on making sure Roger is doing the same.

Greg,

May be it was included and just lost it when we moved to our new home.

Cheers

Instructions are included with all GB hoses we send out. We also have them on file and they can be emailed pretty easily if required.

I've instructed Mary to send an installation instruction sheet for every hose, so Mercedes doesn't have to make copies, on your end.

Easy peasy.
