[alfa] hard brake lines
I'd like to replace all the hard brake lines on my Spider. I know that
I can buy a complete brake line set from IAP but I'd like to make them
myself so that if I need the skill (and the tools) in the future, I'll
be prepared.
There are four things I need: 1) flaring tool 2) hard brake line, 3)
fittings, and 4) tube bender.
1) The flaring tools I've seen can do single, double and ISO flares.
Which one do I need?
2) What size brake line do I need?
3) Where can I find the end fittings since there seems to be two
different types? Or should I reuse the old ones?
4) A tube bender is already in my tool cabinet.
Any special 'gotchas' for making a good quality brake line?
Thanks,
Bruce
