I had practice. We did my brother's truck first.

Then the next week, my truck.

They really kind of needed replacing...

Thanks. They sell a device for the job but $15 worth of lumber and an axle tie down strap do the same thing!

Suprisingly, in comparison, they were in really good shape.

I had to replace the brake lines on my old 2001 stepside, I had installed a 1.5" body lift on it and that extra space between the body and frame made it possible to install the new lines without removing anything. I put on the stainless lines from Inline Tube or one of the companies and it took several weeks to get the stainless fittings to finally seat and seal up completely at the junction box.
