·I'm working on replacing t
I'm working on replacing the brake lines in my 1978 308 (US Spec).
Each of the four hoses is mounted at either end by two similar assemblies (nut around the outside of the brake line fitting, hydraulic hard line inserted into the same brake line fitting, which is threaded both internally and externally.
I've managed to get things undone on the "outside" connection--closest to the tires--of the front and rear lines.
Trouble is, I'm at a loss to see how things get disconnected at the INSIDE mounting point. There's virtually no clearance for any kind of a wrench. Suspension parts and A-arms appear to be in the way. Access from below may be a bit better (requires removal of underside access panels, I think).
Anybody have any ideas in this regard on how to get to the inside mountings?
