I just received the hard brake line kit from AA. It comes with the Center Tunnel line. I am thinking of replacing that also. Has anyone else done this? How is the best way without cutting into the metal.
Thank you |

Getting ready to do this myself and wondering what is involved? I nicked my line with a drill, and although it is not leaking I want to swap it out for peace of mind. Have my replacement line already, and engine is removed from vehicle.
Assuming you can just pull it out directly from the rear firewall? My plan is to depress the pedal a bit to prevent the reservoir from draining, relieve pressure from a rear caliper, then take the line off, replace, bleed brakes. Howie or others can you confirm this is all it takes? Thanks, Josh |
