Wrong plan. First; you don't need to take out anything on the inside to remove the lines. After removing the tank, then remove the cover plate of the lines at the bottom of the car, then you can remove the screws that hold the lines inside the cabinet, and after you have unscrewed the nuts then take out the lines in one piece. That way you can make exact replicas of them. The fridge side you can use just one wrench but the stove side you have to use one more to hold against the turning.

I'm familiar with the basics of bending and flaring the tubing. Can I easily do this without removing any of the interior of the kitchen? (That was all taken out and serviced in the not-too-distant past.) My plan was: 1) cut the previous lines by the tee fitting outside the van, and remove them from the interior. 2) make new lines using the old ones as guides. Leave an extra length at the bottom of each. 3) Refit them through the interior. 4) Add the outside bend to each line and attach to the tee. Will this work without removing any of the kitchen? Thanks! Wes
