Hey guys,

Im removing my old brake lines and was wondering how exactly do you take them off the hard line. What tool should I use to remove them?

well, ina case like that I would use a penetrating spray not a lube. Hit the fittings withsome PB spray about an hour before you plan on working on them. If you are reusing the lines I wouldnt get any pentrating oil on the actual rubber lines themselves, only the hard drawn lines.



And WD-40 is awesome when you use it for what it was intended
