Just use the removed ones as a pattern and bend them up to match. I'm not
sure if the vendors have pre-bent ones for the trucks. They do for the
cars.
Oh, if you are doing all of that to the brakes, strongly consider using DOT
5 fluid. Then they will not rust from the inside. You cannot mix DOT 5 and
DOT 3, so this would be the time to do it.
