You can buy flex gas lines at Home Depot that already have the correct
ends to fit a Westy. There are 3 different sized standard threaded ends
and you need the smallest of these on a 48" line. I have done this
several times. Once you have routed them be sure to clamp the lines in a
few places as they are not intended to be subjected to actual movement
of the lines after installation. My Baja Syncro Camper has had them
since 1994.
