This is the best kit I found when redoing the brake lines on my boat trailer. NiCopp line dont rust and are easy to bend by hand. Just need a flare tool $15-$20. There are lots of videos to show you how.
I would think you can run the new lines along side the old lines and secure them to the frame.

I'm confident in my skills, just didn't want to deal with the rust/corrosion of the lines, that's always a headache. I also looked into this prior to the shop and yeah, NiCopp is the way to go and the Titan brake flaring tool was also a well reviewed one.
I was more curious if any individuals in the rust belt just replaced the leaking lines and went on their way, then had a leak in another area further down the road, or did they opt to replace everything.
