The other tranny line question got me thinking. Let's say if you wanted to take the steel lines out and replace them back with new steel.Nowyou could cut the line close to the flare nut to have room to work. Then couldn't you just take out the larger nut there the flare nut goes into? I'm thinking this is just a 1/2"x1/4" bushing with a built up shoulder. Am I right on this? I know when Mike was redoing his lines he had to redo some stuff but I was curious to see if this would be easier than getting a crow foot socket or a flare wrench in thereif already replacing the lines?
