replacing break lines
so i need to replace the break line that leads from the caliper to the part where it goes into the engine bay as theirs a hole in it and fluid leaks out. how exactly does the line come off the caliper? and the part where it meets to the bay its like has a connecter it's hard to explain but does that part screw off or something? should i also bleed the system when i'm putting it on? thanks

you need a flare nut wrench (10MM i think) for the part where the soft line is connected the hardline. all you have to do is undo the brake line from the caliper (14MM) undo the three 10MM bolts that hold the brake lines on the shock. put everything back together and bleed the brakes.
Its not hard at all it'll take you 10-20 mins. |
to bleed the breaks does the break line have to be connected? how do you even bleed them
|
if you do not know how to bleed brakes or change a line... i strongly suggest u dont attempt to try it. brakes are a very serious thing.
leave it to a professional |

You are talking about replacing the flex line.
It can be quite simple. To make it easy on yourself, first try to unbolt it from the hard line. Be VERY careful here, if you break that hard line you are screwed. You bleed the brakes with everything hooked back up, but it sounds like you already found a DIY for that. |
