1980 300td hydraulic suspension lines
My sls is not working and I found that the reservoir for the hydraulic suspension was empty. I refilled it and found that the lines are leaking in the rear of the car where the lines are above the frame and hidden. What's the easiest thing I can do to. Bypass these corroded lines? 3/16 brake line or hose? Has anyone found an easy logical fix?

Others on this site have replaced them with brake line attached to the bottom of the car.

You will have to buy pieces of straight line, and use the old line for a template for your fit.
Once you get it replaced, here are a few threads in case you have some problems getting it to work. w123 Self-Leveling-System O-ring replacement DIY Self-Leveling-System - How it works, and troubleshooting the system Properly Adjusting your SLS Ride Height Biodiesel300TD is the SLS Guru on these systems  Charlie

Or find a clunker with good lines & grab them.
