Today it didn't rain, been coming down for the last week, just enough to not get much done. So this afternoon I got back to my pickup with the rusted brake line. Had found a compression sleeve in the 1/4 inch line from someones old repair. Compression sleeves are not for the high pressure of a brake system, double flares only. Problem is that the crossmember is in the way, just enough room to get my hands in there to cut, the tube and flare it. This is back inside the channel of the frame, not great access. 3rd try got a nice square double flare, even remembered to put the fitting on the tube first. Hour of flat on my back, with head down somewhat brought on a 5 beer hangover type of headache, so had to quit for awhile. Right can't handle beer anymore. Glad that job is done.
