no i did them yesterday... before the metal lines went all the way under the radiator... now it is hose and goes around the radiator, so before if i hit something or the lines got caught on something they would have ripped off, now they are up and out of the way, its much easier to tell in person...



and kyle. lol ya i cant type or spell. lol

Its not like they're brakelines. They don't move anywhere. I wouldn't bother replacing them until they start to get old.
