Re: Brake line flares, what's good enough
Great tips from everyone. One that I did not see mentioned was to cut the tube with a small cut off wheel.
Standard tube cutters will work harden the tube end. Deburring the end will not always remove the hardened part and this will often result in misformed or crushed flares.
Stu Offroad has a great write up on flaring brake line. Check him out at http://www.stu-offroad.com/suspensio...etool/ft-1.htm
Good luck
