replacing brake line 1980 Chevy C10 P/u???? SDEWYZ 10-19-2003, 02:00 PM
Can someone help me...trying to replace a brake line pass. side on 1980 chevy c10 p/u. I got most of the old brake line off, except for the top section which threads towards the engine bay, there is a solid line on the opposite side that thread into the top of the hose. I cant seem to get it off, I figure if I turn the fitting on the top of the hose it would come off, but it only turns slightly and wont go anymore, so I attempted to turn the backside nut which is very difficult to get to or get any type of a small crescent wrench in there but not luck. Anyone have any ideas or advice?
