I mistakenly installed shorter front flexible brake lines on my Moke, so now I want to change them to the longer ones. Seems like a royal pain job, as access is limited, to say the least, and I don't want to pull the radiator.
Getting in to hold the retaining nut on the top of the flex line is the biggest problem. The right side, opposite radiator, is doable, but just getting to that large nut (looks like 15/16") with any kind of tool is less than straight forward, as least to me. A crow's foot on a long extension won't work due to the radiator being in the way.
Any suggestions?
