Autozone (here in Tampa area) and perhaps other BoxPartsStores have loaner
tools (really purchase/gently use/return tools) including the pipe bender
necessary for the brake/fuel lines for the TR. Just finished doing both brake
and fuel for the project. As long as you take it slow it is not a hard job to
bend the pipes as necessary. I did bend around the jack hole on the hydraulic
pipe. I had most of the old ones and that made it easier but for the two
sections I didn't have, I used some scrap heavy guage wire to figure out the
bends (heavy enough to hold the bends and not flop all over the place). The
fuel line from rear connector to the shut off valve was an interesting (and
most difficult) one.
