Well i really screwed things up -one rear side the brake fitting that goes into the ss line has stripped and won't tighten up. I am totally bum ed out no-i wish i never tried to to the brakes. How the can i fix a bad fitting? I may have even screwed up the threads on the new line I can fix this easy though-i cut the striped thread off and going to lowes to get new threads and a flaring tool.

Have everything to fix this stripped brake line bolt, pipe cutter,flairing tool,teflon tape-new bolt plus steel pipe to try flairing tool out-not as hard to fix as i thought-I also got caliper red painting kit! The shop also cleaned out the ss brake line threads from my failed try at using a bad thread bolt! PMDP one of my stock went up 300% in two days!
