The diagrams in the fsm  and the descriptions in the parts manual are not helpful...  5/32" tubing and vacuum hose that fits 5/32 tubing is your friend. 

 

You have a funny connector or the vacuum pump.  (it is where the red cap in the picture of the pump and the power steering.  it connects to the hard tubing)   I have also attached a schematic of the vacuum hoses.  it is for a 4wd.  just ignore the lines going to the cad and transfer case on a 2wd. 

 

To find the position of the tee...  it is circled in red (sorry not my truck, just plucked from webz)  Mine is close to there and looks similar.   That looks like they have done some replacing already.

 

You should be able to get everything you need at one of the zones..... but a real parts store might be a bit more of a help.

The zones are the parts stores like autozone, advanced auto, some of the newer Napa's, some O'reillys....   They are like walmart (and Lowes), they might have it, but nobody really knows, don't know where it is and/or what it is used for.  but hey they have soft drinks and air fresheners.  (these are the places that need to know if it is an automatic and if it has AC and power steering to tell you what oil you need.)  

 

For tubing connectors, you are looking for a Dorman 47430 .   This is an assortment of different sizes (for straight connections).  But if they can guide you to that area, you may find other things etc that might work better.   They will be in "blister packs"  either in the Red HELP packaging or very close to that. 

 

Hope that helps!

For what it is worth I recommend just cutting the hard lines out.  Leave enough on the pump end to serve as a nipple.  Then  order some silicone line from McMaster-Carr,  Even vacuum hose from the parts store is better than the hard line.  Route the replacement line to the driver side fender behind the battery, fuse block, etc then across the firewall.  Those hard lines are asking for trouble as these rides age.  I always hated how the factory rant the hard line straight through the engine bay.  Always in the way.
