Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 31, 2008 Nasty job, but massively easier if you have access to a ramp! Only gotta do it once though, if that's any consolation. It's worth noting that many MOT places will fail a brake line on a slight bit of surface corrosion. I usually sand back any rusty bits and waxoyl it before taking it in. Always passes :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonicriot13 0 Posted October 31, 2008 I know how you feel mate! I'm doing mine tomorrow! :clap: They were an advisory on the last MOT so thought I'd get them done before I finally lay the car up for the winter.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted November 1, 2008 had all mine done the other week while getting all the calipers etc replaced. I ended up paying someone else to do it. I bought a flaring tool (nice one) but never used it, was tempted to sell it on if it would be any use to anyone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
