Really useful DIY! The pictures really make it.
I'm having a hell of a time with the hard line nuts. This is the second one, but on the first one, suddenly the flare wrench broke free, and I thought I had it. Turns out, it just stripped every single corner of the nut. I just switched over to the opposite side, hoping for better results. It began to strip, and I stopped, resulting in this.
I'm about to PB blast the hell out of it, but just wondering if anyone else had this much of a problem with these particular nuts. I saw one guy towards the beginning of this thread say he had to use pliers. Better option, anyone?
