make sure you have a strong set of plyers or a clamp of some sort when removing the line from the fender wall. That bolt is a pain in the ***. Bleeding the brakes, if you do a search you'll find plenty of detailed instructions

If you use a flare nut wrench, you greatly reduce the risk of stripping the nut.

Out of curiosity - how much of a pain in the *** has one created if that nut gets stripped?

If you strip the nut, you would have to use pliers to loosen/tighten it from then on.

Not necessarily all THAT bad, but a PITA for sure.
