Yeah working on these too. Original hoses so replacement from hell.
The fittings on the body came loose fine (I had sprayed all of them with
LPS#2)
Both fittings on the caliper side are impossible. I did get one to undo. Hit
the fitting with a propane torch like just 10-15 seconds and the old brake
line just exploded! Sounded like a gun-shot. Had glasses on ... a bit of
fluid sprayed around. Note for future heating of brake fittings.
Lucky thing I have two calipers in storage so they are going on with new
stubby steel lines tomorrow.
