Replacing fuel lines on 98

I want to replace the fuel lines on my 98 - the flexibles lines that go from the the steel supply/return to the lift pump and hard line from OF valve. These are not rubber, they are quick-disconnect type lines that are semi-rigid. Who has replace these? Did you just pull them off and replace them with good diesel rated lines?
Thanks,
-john

Yep those lines are quick disconnect, but never work. Mine were rusted/fused to the steel lines making it a pita to get off. They will come off though, i just destroyed them with some pilers (dont deform the steel line!!!) and used a twisting motion to get them off. Slip some diesel rated line on the steel line with a hose clamp or 2 and your good to go.
