I need to find a source for the 1/2" steel tubing used as the tank fill vent line between the tanks and the front of the frame. This tube is similar to the standard 3/8" steel fuel line.
I do not want to deal with coiled tube. I'm looking for straight sections. I've called around asking for 1/2" fuel line tubing but none of the auto parts stores around me carry it straight or coiled any larger than 3/8". I have checked with local heavy truck repair facilities and they do not have it. One hydraulic vendor did not have any with the zinc coating but did have something called JIC tube available in 1/2". I'm not sure what that is. I know the JIC fittings are 37* and that tube should be rated on the OD.
Is this stuff that hard to find or am I not asking for the right product or calling the right places?
