I was reading somewhere here about how difficult it is to get the tubes from the reservoir into the grommets on the master cylinder. I greased them up with caliper assembly lube and they slipped in as easy as a 50 year ol....well lets just say they went right in.

I’ve done this several times and have struggled with it, but when they finally go in, it seems super easy. There is definitely finesse required, i forget and fight with it, my hand is a tad too fat so its super frustrating, then I have to take a deep breath and relax, then it ends up slipping right in, then the next one is equally as smooth.
