You had a bad experience with Meng? Tony appears to be on top of things over there. I am sorry to hear. He does a lot of business with us.

 

thanks for the guide, I just install my dezod line today.
just 1 question. The 10mm nuts at the feeding line was not able to in to the new brake line all the way.
Looks like you wasn't able to get it screw all the way in too. Should i worry about it?

 

If she is tight and not leaking, then no worries.

 

thanks Paul.
it is nice and tight. I drove over 300 miles yesterday. no issue so far.

 

for the life of me i could not get the feeding line off even with locking pliers wd 40 and pb blaster. both me and my friend tried to get it off but we stopped before the bolt got really stripped. any suggestions for us to try?

 

also wanted to ask is there any dangers or things i should watch out for when using the heat gun?

 

For those of you having trouble with the install. I have a small update. This past august, I had my transmission out of the car and was finally able to do the stainless steel clutch line. My uncle's buddy let me borrow this:

Its called a crow's foot but I called it a god send. I can not express how badly I wish I had this tool when I was doing the brake lines. It made unscrewing the feed infinitely easier.
I would say this tool is an absolute must have for the project.

I wish I had a pic to help explain, but basically the tool snaps on to the end of a socket extension. The opening in the hex shape allows you to pass the feed line through and then slide the tool over the screw. You basically then have almost a full box end grip on the bolt making it a snap to torque loose.

 

for anyone looking to tackle this project, i picked up a flared wrench set for cheap to use instead of the regular open socket wrenches and the flared set worked wonders. just had to let the pb blaster soak in for a few minutes and then they came undone with no effort at all.
