Rear Drum question
Rear Drum question
I have to replace the rear brake line from the t-valve by the axle to the passenger brake drum this weekend (casualty of not having a line lock). I started spraying the joints with penetrating fluid today, so hopefully they won't be so bad.
Anyway, what tools are involved in this fix, just a flare nut wrench, maybe some vicegrips and a 10mm hex for bleeding the line? I'm at college and have to get tools from home to work on this, so I don't want to not have what I need.
Thanks

A regular flare tool won't work. It is an inverted flare. I would either get a new line or pick one up from a Pick-a-Part. I have a spare. But shipping it would be a PITA. Good luck, Lon.
