Heat. Heat is always your friend. Do you have a MAPP gas torch? Heat
up the connector and it will come loose.

Thanks to Jim's suggestion, I got the endlink properly
installed,
however the real problem is the rear brake hose that I went to
replace. I understand how everything is supposed to work, except for
where it attaches to the brake line. The junction is incredibly
rusty, so I soaked it a few times in PB Blaster. What is the easiest
way to get this apart, and should I have gotten a second clip for the
line side? I know that the line must be bad, since it isn't fully
releasing the caliper, and when I wiggle it around a bit, the caliper
releases the rest of the way!
