Brake lines and hoses

[steve1434]

Hi all

I am having to swap shells so need the brake lines - not a real drama but i cant get the hoses off the ends of the lines.....one of the 10mm bolts is rounded, the other won't budge and i could easily round it off. Used wd40 but still nothing.....ideas?

Make new ones.
but to save the hoses get mole grips on them

Definitely new lines for ease

Lines are fine, just can't get hoses off to fit braids. I could get copper pipe and make new ones but what do i use to make union with braided lines?

You'll need a flaring tool to make the end. You can buy the union at any motorfactor.
