So I painted the lines(old ones were not!) and put a couple of short lengths of hose over it to prevent chafe inside the frame where you cannot secure it in any way(other than spray foam!) It is a crappy job, but if you have the right tools(double flare tool,line wrench), it is well worth it!
My lines are painted and don't show any sign of rust... but.... How did you run the new line into the frame? Mine looks like it was put in before the coupler was welded on.
