Default Need some quick help (bags)

I recently had my truck bagged and I left the San Diego area last night an after driving for about two hrs I blew a line. I pulle over switched it out with new line and took off. 10 minutes later I blew the same line in the same place. After checkin everything out I noticed the exhaust was blowing straight towards that section and heatin up the line. I replaced it again and drove slow all the way back to my apartment. Does anyone out there have extra 1/2 inch airline hose I could pick up in the San Diego area or some suggestions about the exhaust problem. I'm thinkin a quick turn down piece from autozone maybe and some thermal wrap/heat shield for the line. I need to make it to Houston tx for thanksgiving and a funeral. Please help me out an thanks in advance

Either idea, or both, will work just fine. Turn the exhaust down with a tip, or wrap the line in heat reflective material (I know auto parts stores sell this in 10-15 foot sections). As far as 1/2 line, look for a Parker store in that area.
