Re: Stainless Brake line install

I believe my point was that if you twist the steel line that goes into the
rubber line on the axle, you have to replace the line that runs to the
front of the car.  On cars with load-dependent proportioning valves, you
only have to replace the line that goes to the proportioning valve.
