Bill,
I'm not sure how to advise you how to create the necessary double flare, but I
know there are special tools available for this. They're a bit pricey. About
fifty bucks, the last time I checked.
Take care,

Subject: brake line
the dpo hammered to front brake line to the right side shut so i have to
replace it. is there a way to make the british type flare? one end has a
typical flare with a female nut and the other end has the british flare. i
thought i would take a regular brake line and flare one end for the female
nut but i don't know how to flare the other end. any ideas?
thanks
