How do I remove the rear brake lines? I attempted to disconnect the solid line from the flexible one on my rear end because I'm doing a drum to disc conversion, but I ended up rounding off two corners of the 10mm bolt on the hard line.

How do you guys manage to get those off? I tried lots and lots of PB Blaster by the way, but it didn't help.

flare end wrenchs, christain. they're made to grip the flat section of the nut more than a normal wrench, so that you dont round them off.
worth the investment for brake, and fuel lines.. (right MAC???!!! wink.gif )
