        YES, LOTS --- Main one  though is the brake lines.  They are all
rusting away.  I have been  changing them here OFTEN for customers that have lost
their brakes on their  summer vacation road trip.  Main places to look >
above spare  tire, the two main lines coming from the master cylinder are clipped
to the  frame with a plastic clip.  They are all rusting through at this place
 !  Next is at the T junction on the drivers side frame rail just rear of
the steering rack.  Third common place it the T junction at the rear above  the
transmission mount on the rear of the cross member.  CHECK ALL THESE  NOW !
 Check the entire lengths for sure.  AND,  the clutch line also if you have a
std. tranny.

    Next on the list is the ALL the fuel lines and  their connections -
EVERWHERE.   Get rid of the plastic fire wall  connector.  This has been addressed
here often.  Check the archives  !
