[QUOTE="CHOP SHOP, post: 1552958, member: 17493"] Flaring lines is a bitch. Nice tool, it sucks. Bad tool it sucks more. OLD line sucks the WORST. I have a crappy flare tool, I have a snapon flare tool, and I have a VERY fancy one like the OEMs use to. That said I ALWAYS buy new line with flared ends. I can use a measuring tape and bend nicely. Thats all thats needed to use PRE FLARED lines. Yesterday I put two preflared lines on a truck with NO bender and NO flare tool in less time than reading this thread. Flaring line SUCKS, why do so many people just have to "do it"? Is it a challenge? Some kind of rights of passage? I dunno, but it makes me nervous to know that most folks doing a below average job of flaring lines are putting them in their braking system!!! [/QUOTE]
