Front left brake line replacement. 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Yuri on  Thu Sep 29 09:01 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I tried to replace the front left brake hose and rounded the flare nut.
I did buy a good flare nut wrench, 11mm, soaked and heated the connection, but still failed to disconnect the hose.

I will try some radical meausures, and will likely need to replace the hard hydraulic line on the front (left side for now). So I have some questions:

- where does it go?? Where is the other end of the line?
- Does it have the same small nut on the other side? Will I face the same problem?
- Where do I get a replacement line? Do I buy it from a dealer or buy a generic line and bend it as the original?
- Are there any other way to repair the hard line, or replacement is the only way?

Thank you,

Yuri
