Changing out Brake Hoses. '69 C-20

'69 C-20. Seems the fitting for the brake hose at the spindle is a tight fit. Don't think I can get it with a wrench.
Is there a special tool for this?

Cut the old rubber hose off right at the fitting and use a deep socket on the fitting.

Do you have any line wrenches? If not you should get some.

I have some line wrenches, just seems real tight up in there: and the hose seems bigger then the opening of the wrench. Might have had the wrong size wrench though, doh.
I'll take a look at it again in the morning.
