Default Re: Replacing hydraulic brake lines

Because the A didn't have hydraulic brakes originally,all the aftermarket ones are of their own design.Every maker/builder/designer makes and routes them differently.I make my own,and for years I flared them with a hand tool.Then about 15 years ago I bought a hydraulic flaring tool.I also only use the copper-nickel aircraft tubing.SO much easier to work than the old plain steel.Much stronger and corrosion resistant than plain steel.I have rolls of plain steel brake line hanging next to my lift that are 15 years old,and will never get used by me.
