Subject:Coolant thoughts wanted

Recently Mark described changing out coolant lines.

My stock set up 84 blew lines from reservoir to H pipe  I’m replacing those. 

But, this makes me really wonder if the van is telling me the coolant lines are tired.

Is the stock set up in a 84 something I could change out on my own? 

Usually if I have parts that match up I can put things back together. 

But, are there tricky parts I need to be aware of?

Also what is a affordable kit for a 84 stock set up?  I want reliable for the next 50,000miles or so.

List participants description of the job and parts recommendation greatly appreciated.
