I=E2=80=99m not sure the stainless steel style line was available way back =

I happened to be in a Hydraulic line shop and notice a bulk box of black pl=
astic tubing that looked exactly the stock tubing and it had a 3000 psi bur=
st pressure.

The hardest part was heating the plastic line and inserting the fittings.
