Now it is time to proceed with installation of the new lines. Installation is generally the reverse of removal. However, following are some helpful tips.

Start with the main fuel feed line. It has a metal fitting on one end that screws in to the tank. Screw this in, the opposite of removal.

The new line likely comes with excess rubber line. You should cut the hose short enough to avoid touching any other parts like the axles or differential, but long enough to make a graceful bend to the fuel line it attaches to. Use your best judgement, and start longer than you think. You can always make it shorter.

Then, clamp the rubber end to the metal fuel line. Use a new hose clamp, if available.
