Effing brake line

[BigNorm]

I'm having trouble getting this line to break loose. ( the top one ) Did they use lock tight on It? I don't want to strip it.

Brake wrench and Liquid Wrench ?

 

[Tripps]

Beat me to it.

And clean it before you open it up!

 

[BigNorm]

Thanks. Stuff I should know. I think I need a better brake line wrench. I hate having an excuse to buy more tools.

Definitely use a good quality spaner not an adjustable one

A gently used heat gun may help loosen it up too.

I'm sure most any one here can break it,but do you want to save it also?sorry had smart a** remark i could not hold back

If you are not using the line again cut it off and use a socket.

@Fingers , I'm intrigued -- I learn so much here -- what does that mean, to cut the line and use a socket ? Brake lines are high pressure (relatively) and I've never heard of such a thing, or at least not called that.

Thank you.
