Yah, I have new hoses. Just waiting til I get the brakes on before I replace them. I got the driver side line to break free from brake hose. The passenger side would not break free. I had to cut the brake line, install a new fitting, and double flare the brake line.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Today I removed my drivers side door and top hinge for rebuild. The door opens and closes just fine, but the door check doesn't work at all. I rebuilt the passenger side hinges in 2017 because you had to lift the door to close it.

On Edit: I want to note that I realized the top plate inside the pillar was floating around and I captured it with a bolt so it didn't drop to the bottom when I removed the factory hinge bolts. I read other posters having that happen and glad to notice it.
