#33598, "rear brake line "


          

Im swaping from drum to disk. I tried to remove the brake line at the wheel well per the wiki, with a 10mmhahn flare nut wrench and it rounded. I thought mayb my wrench sucks. Went to sears and picked up a craftsman one. Tried it out on another untouched flare nut (the one i wont need) amd same deal. Wtf? I got it off with vice grips.. needless to say, the flare nut is chewed up. Can i cut the end off ajd reflare with a new nut? What are my options here? Thanks.

you can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest, honestly, its the honest ones you need to look out for. you never know when they will do something..stupid

as long as you reflare it it should work just fine. Most people have them round off.

Usually i have had to just grab a pair of small vice grips to get these things off if they don't want to cooperate with a wrench.
