I dont think you are going to find a kit that complete. You can get a return line kit that has new hoses, plastic T's, and o-rings for the top of the motor. Everything else will most likely have to be purchased individually.

Has anyone recently done one of these? It's now my daily driver and can't have her down too long. Is the fuel line all 7/16ths? I am also going to replace the pickups as the rear one starts suckin air at a bit under half a tank. Just need to make sure I have everything as it's over 30miles to the nearest parts place.

The underside of my truck looks like the Exxon Valdez after it struck....I am replacing all fuel lines and pickups at one time and then forget about it.

so return lines also, i do belive the return lines are smaller, but truck isnt with me to look at it.

nobody makes a full kit for it. just have to make them yourself.

Not from oil....from fuel. This thing is leaking like a sieve and I don't think there is a fitting that isn't weeping fuel from it. No salt...up in Colorado waaaay out in the sticks.
