Need 1987 Carburated fuel bracket pickup lines rusted

The lines are rusted out where they come out of the top of the tank. I repaired once when I first got the truck. The steel lines were paper thin, and I cut them off, leaving them as long as possible. , sanded down, JB welded, then sanded down and ran rubber line but now they are leaking again. Ive searched ebay, parts store, and local used parts sources. Ive looked through all the posts on this site, from previous posts, and all were dead ends. There are 3 lines coming out of pump. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Your fuel pump is on the right side of the engine near the front on the head

Napa has a few different options.

Now if your looking for the bracket that goes in the tank you might need to get a little creative

Adapt a electric fuel pump bracket to work .

You would just need to braze a longer pick up tube on to match what you have.

Find a used one form the dry Southwest

​​​​the sending unit is on top of the tank, is that what you need? Because I know you can get the fuel pump from stores but probably not the sending unit.

I have one sitting in an 85 carb truck if interested. Southeast truck. Can get pics after I drop the tank this weekend hopefully. PM me if you want

99℅ sure carb trucks are set up the same. Supply, return, etc... You could look into it though to be sure

You've got to pick out your model (engine, long bed, wagon, etc.) because the fuel tanks are different sizes and placed differently. I've never had Lakeland on the phone, but their internet service is pretty good.

Sure beats JB Weld.

That would be the better option obviously if it's legit

Lakeland Toyota is a dealer, so it's about as "legit" as you can reasonably get.

BUT ... just because Toyota's official EPC (I believe that is what the web site is based on) has a part number and price doesn't mean for sure that the part is still available in the U.S. Given that this part has model variants, I would invest in a phone call. And I would have my VIN ready to read!
