how easy is it to bend the brakes lines on and 93 dx, so i can install a type r m/c?
do you guys bend it manually, or is there something used so there is no kinks in the lines?

i searched and my results were helpless, so if you have any input, let me know.

thanks!

U need a tube bender. Summit sells them for $8.95. Dont even try and do it with your hands your going to kink the tube.

There are bending tools. They look somewhat like pliers or vice grips.

You can just rent the tool from autozone (free), or buy one for under $10
Its just a stick with a grooved ring on the end (where the bending happens)


I actually did a fair amount of final adjustment bending with my bare hands...but Im sweet like that

smooth motions too. just because you have it in a tube bender dont throw a ton of pressure on it.
