Replace Lines on Rack? was created by Tutti57
I was trying to save my sister in law from replacing the rack on her 2012 Routan since the leaking line is one that comes on the rack. I took it off last night and was surprised to find it is not just a double flare or anything like it. There is a flare but also a thinner tube that looks like it goes inside something, and a rubber o ring. I have never tried to do this type of repair to a rack so maybe they are all like this, but does anyone have any experience making a line or is she going to have me put the whole unit in after a long hot day in the shop, on my back in her driveway...

Here is a link to a thread Google found of people with the same problem and better pics. I've never seen a bubble flare like this. Is that smaller part that sticks out not needed? Also, is this a high pressure line?
bangshift.com/forum/forum/bangshift/tech...will-this-do-a-flare
I saw used racks were about $150 and I just don't have time to make it out to the pick and pull any time soon.
This with a rubber hose? Not sure if it's the right size though.
The pressure and return lines have the same ends on them, so if they are the same size I could get one or two of those and cut the end off and run a hose, maybe.
