Went to tighten and the fitting broke. Glad I found it before I headed out. Anyway went to parts store and bought a change of oil while I was there. Will have to wait on test ride at least another week, going to be very cold.
Almost forgot I replaced both flex lines to calipers too. They looked to be 1978 original! While I had the wheels off I noticed axle seal was leaking so that may be next week's project. I enjoy reading about everyone's projects.

Thanks idbeast and Kevin! That encouragement should get me going today.

Ahh, the maintenance! You just reminded me that I had finished my '55 Chevy sedan in 1981. It has flex lines... It has axle seal... It has...
