When we were discussing your ingenious bearing puller and doing the rear end swap you said that you plugged up the brake lines at the junction block on the axle. I have tried to do this several times but the damn thing still drips fluid. I can't get it to stop dripping entirely unless I put the lines back in. I wii\ll need to have the thing plugged for a while b/c I want to swap some stuff from the old rear to the new one. Thanks.

While doing a search for something else, I found this... sorry I didn't see it earlier!

I never plugged my back line on my swap. It could be done though by cutting your old body-to-axle brake hose in half. Then you'd screw a bolt into the end of the rubber hose. Your current body-to-axle brake hose should be replaced by now anyway; it's surely deteriorated.
