The correct rag joint ended up being Lares 200.

While the bed is off, I also replaced the rear axle brake lines and the 'front to rear' intermediate line. I used Inline Tube so that the set would match the front brake lines that I replaced last year. I ordered the 'front to rear' line for a 1969 GMC shortbed with rear leafs and it was about 16" too short. The bends/general shape looked the same as the original line I pulled out, but just was way too short. This first PN was CTB67M1. The team at Inline Tube were extremely helpful in getting me the correct line to match what I pulled out of my truck which ended up being PN CTB71M1. I'm not sure what the mix up here was but make sure you double check the lengths if you are ever ordering these lines.

The rear axle lines were very close to the original shape and went in easily.
