[Shotimes] HELP with broken brake lines

[Steve Tatro]

Well, I did it again. While trying to fix something simple (the flexible rear brake hoses) I screwed something up. While trying to undo the flexible hose from the solid brake line, I somehow managed to twist the entire fitting off the solid line, and now there's a leak.

So I'm looking for some options. Do I have to replace the entire solid line? Or can I have someone simply put a new fitting on the line? I know there are brake fitting flare kits out there, but I don't have one, don't want one, and don't know how to use one!

Suggestions please!

Thanks as always,
