Default Fuel line replacement

I have a 1994 3.8 & I need to replace the 3 fuel lines from the fuel tank up to about the middle of the doors due to corrosion.

I went to AutoZone & Advance Auto & the only thing they have is rubber hose.

The original lines are steel back to the filter which has the nylon line with fittings & from there they turn into SS braided to the tank.

What is my best option for this repair & the best place to purchase the parts?

I would use the metal (stainless steal?) tubing to replace the stock metal tubing. Metal tubing is often used in areas with alot of heat, where rubber tubing may melt for example.

As for options, either contact your local dealer and see if they can order the parts you need. Or take it to a good local brake shop to have them run the tubes/lines etc for you. Or buy the straight tubes and a bender tool and run the tubes and lines yourself.

Good luck...
