I installed the new stud as shown in the picture and drilled out the broken bolt (no fun). Use carbide drills and start with small bits and work your way up. Always lubricate while drilling. Lines are in place but not connected. There are many brackets I had to purchase/wait for since almost all broke off due to age. Placing the plastic brackets in now ,will connect and then bleed. Will keep you posted.

Just finished with installing my two brake lines.

This was not easy since when they install the brake lines there is no engine or axle. Harder to put it all in place afterwards and some bends were addressed and straightened out most. I do have a few brackets to install but can wait since need to go to junk yard and find the brackets since no longer made.

That said just tested today and works fine. However, I think I have an extremely slight leak at left rear flare fitting. Thinking of puling it out and reseating it . All others no leaks. Do not want to tighten it anymore since will deform flange. Maybe the hose it connects to needs replacement. Any suggestions appreciated. May need reflange.
