Question Brake line leaking

Hi all, I have a slight problem, my 99 f150 has a slight leak in the passenger side brake line, just noticed it. is replacing the line a do it yourself job or should i take it to my mechanic? (concerned about the ABS brakes)
I think the leak may be the reason for my pulsating when stopping from high speeds.
also where should i go to get the line set?

Thanks in advance!!

If it's the flex line, you can do it yourself and bleed all the brakes when you're done. As for the pulsating, sounds like your rotors need to be turned.

get the hose at nappa (Usually better quality than autozone)

your pulsation has nothing to do with it. although it might have caused it because that side is weak so the other side is doing more work and possibly overheated that rotor.
