Well i swapping out my drums for a disc conversion i got off of a 94 EX. i got the whole swap for 60 bucks by the way..lol.
Everything was going great, bolts comming off with ease and everything. So then i get to my hardlines and i broke the hardline right above the fitting. So now i have my rear hardlines gushing out brake fluid of course. i was wondering could i just buy a fitting and put it on the remainder of the hardline thats left or what should i do?? i have no brakes!!!!!

 

you should replace the whole hard line, its not a good idea to patch up hydrolic lines, especially on something as important as breaks

 

cool. where is a good place to get some hardlines from?

Dam, i wonder how much this crap is going to cost?

 

Autozone has them, just rent the bender and be ready to spend no more then 10 bucks on the lines

 

im on my way to autozone right now.

 

good luck w/ that..It shoudn't be to hard if you have the old line to go by. Let us know how it comes out..

 

i just came from autozone and i have a question....what size in the brake line? Also i think i might just buy the hardlines and let someone else install them. I wonder how much that would cost to install them?

 

pay attention the the fitting size too, i know from experience autozone dosn't have metric fittings, not the ones around here anyway.

 

they do have metric fittings, there are 2 racks, one is labeled domestic and the other japanese, Euro

 

like i said, they do not have metric fittings at the ones around here, where are you?

 

You can buy that hardline pre-bent with fittings from the factory. OE baby, th only way to go.. Talk to Bill @ HondaCity, 414-328-3500 tell him you know Adam from Chicago.

 

im located in NW indiana

 

bullshit. a car store that doesnt carry metric parts...thats a crock of ****.

Dude, i hate to say this. But if your this worried, I mean its the brakes. Id have it professionally done if your not certain that you are up to it.

how the hell would you know? if the ones around you have them then good for you, but don't tell me what i already know, i went to 2 autozones and advance auto parts, they DO NOT HAVE METRIC FITTINGS FOR BREAK LINES...

YES they do, I work there, they have a whole wall full of them, not all stores do but ever store in the Midwest district does, and thats over 800 locations

 

Reason #1 why we don't do brake work like that at home!
Thats sucks dude.

Hope you have a good shop close by to bleed them - I had to drive to one at 4am without proper pressure... Not cool! Had to pump them like a bastard!
