no, but I'll give you a bump. Obviously there is a need for it, or they wouldn't manufacture it. What are you trying to fix?

I tried one on my 96 ram. I couldn`t get the plastic to expand enough to fit over the metal line. Maybe it was the wrong one or I didn`t know what I was doing but I gave up and bought the whole line from mopar. It was fairly cheap at the time.

I had a rusty line on my 92. I used one of the Dorman metal quick connect fuel line fittings. I has some braided line and then connected it with those fuel injections hose clamps. Works pretty good.

For me, was a lesson in aggravation. It did the job, but found it beyond hard to get the nylon line over the barbs of the brass splice tube. I boiled the end of the new quick connect and got it on the brass tube, but there was no way to boil the piece of line that was attached to the truck.

Was finally able to get it on about half way-and called it good. Sleeved over it with some rubber fuel line, clamps and it's holding up.
