Subject:Replacing brake lines
From:jhlauterbach

What is best way of replacing brake lines is cases where original tubing has
preformed bends.  I think that I have a pin hole leak in the tube that runs
from brake pressure reducer back towards rear wheels.

Is it better to get exact replacement part or can one buy flex tubing that
has the correct fittings already mounted on the ends.

I don't have a set of flaring tools so I am looking for easiest way of
fixing problem that won't sacrifice safety.
