I am working on installing a new soft brake line on the passenger side and I cannot get the nut/bolt on the hard line to let loose. Someone He-manned it on and coupled with some rust it is froze.
I have access to only one place to turn it with a wrench, which should be towards the front of the rig, counter clock wise. Sadly it is pretty rounded now from an hour of trying.
Looking for suggestions. I have sprayed the hell out of it with PB Blaster and no luck. I was thinking about doing the hot cold method but my dilema is this... at this point the nut is pretty screwed. I might be better off replacing the hard line at this point and get a new nut, as since the line is flanged I cannot just replace that?
