Joe,

We noticed my drivers side brake line was a little weathered and were going to change it Sunday . . . but it seems to be frozen in place. In trying to change it the corners of the lower nut got rounded.

I'm going to order some braided lines for all 4 corners. Should I also order the hard line for that side?

What would the labor hours be to replace the 4 brake lines?
I'd like to do this next week, around Wednesday or Thursday. Who do I need to call to set up the appointment?

Thanks!

I am interested in the answer to this, too, as I think I might wanna upgrade my brake lines to braided and put in SuperBlue.

As far as who at Koons to call, I believe Joe has said b4 to talk to Bill Appel to make the appointment.

Joe, please jump in and correct me if I am wrong on that.

Yes you are right Bill is the one to contact his # is 703 448-7206. As far as prices go I'd rather not quote you one until I get a look at the damaged line. I have had very good luck in the past in getting them free so we'll see how it goes.
