Hi Everyone,

I have an '84 760 Turbo that I'm replacing the front brakes on. My rubber brake hoses need replaced, too. The problem is that when I tried to loosen the copper brake lines from the hoses, the heads stripped off on them (even with a flare wrench). I even soaked the fittings with PB Blaster a week before I tried to loosen the lines. So, I called Swedish Engineering to buy new ones. The only ones that they offer are the Volvo ones that cost about $30 each ( I need 4 of them). They suggested that I go to NAPA and buy replacement lines. I don't remember seeing lines that would be long enough to cross from the brake line junction block over to the passenger side wheel. Anyway, I'm thinking about ordering the Volvo lines.

Thanks in advance.

Dave
