Im changing the brake lines on my '88 951, and the brake fluid is leaking at the bolt. Anybody have any suggestions?

 

Which line? The more info you can give, the better.

 

Did you cross-thread the nut?

 

It's the original OEM line, i'm replacing it w/ stainless steel

 

The line is a pressure fit, so it has to be tight. It's not too hard to cross-thread them as they are quite malleable. Pull it apart and check for crossed-threads - if not, try getting it a bit tighter but be careful.

 

you probly forgot the copper washers on ea. side of the line??? You need those.

 

Good call - I assumed too much

 

Skip, you guys stocking those lines? I was going to reuse my factory ones but one has a small cut so off to braided I go? Any change of matching Pelican so I dont have to call them, you guys get stuff to me so quick.

We do stock them, but they are not the same brand as Pelican offers.

 

OK, how much money am I out? Less than 100 bucks?
