FWIW, for the flex hoses, if you already have the caliper off, you can snake the closed end of a 6-pt combo wrench over the disconnected fitting and around the strut assembly and use that in lieu of a flare wrench. Then you can wail on the brake union between flex hose and hard line..

After last summer's 240 brake adventure, I shudder just thinking about this stuff. :-)
