Stupid Question about Highway Gears??

[simp5782]

I can't image that fuel line would be hard to source or in short supply. Nothing special about the LMTV lines, as you know.

There are a half dozen hose shops where I live and I have them made all the time.

Nope

Few extra fittings and parker push low line and cut and fit any fuel, hydraulic, transmission if need be and even air lines in a pinch. Not supposed to use them for air but it will hold as a temporary repair.

And just about all the hydraulic supply houses have prebuilt -6 hoses with JIC-6F fittings on the shelf. Last I looked I believe a 2’, a 5’ and a 7’ will replace the 3 lines for about $45, Plus shipping? I am removing my mid structure for a habitat build, so I think I was looking at changing that to a 2’, 6’ and 8’ for a little more room to re-route them, at a few additional $ of cost…

Maybe there is some confusion between capitalism and price gouging. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_gouging
