Mike..
Just did that install last weekend.. fairly painless.. I've done
two sets so far.. Only real hang-ups I had were on the front
lines. The metal nipple that threads into the SS line is fairly
soft, so you can strip the head very easily if you try to force
it. In both cases the fronts were very stuck.. I ended up having
to use vise grips, liquid wrench and some heat before they even
budged.. I'd suggest spraying them (and all the other connections)
with Liquid Wrench or WD40 for a couple days in advance so they
unthread nice and easy.. another thing you can try is to get a 6
point box end 11mm wrench and cut a small notch in it the width of
the metal brake lines. This will come in handy at all the
connections and will give you more grip on the metal nipple than
the open end of the wrench... otherwise its a pretty easy job..
Good luck.
