They can and they also have pre made ones. Bender is cheap and you can get them real cheap at Harbor Freight.

You can measure the length and Napa will flare the lines for you. Flare tools are fairly cheap too. Same with benders. Seems like they were about $10 at Harbor Freight if I recall.

You might be able to just fix the broken end of your line. New flare nut, new flare, reattach it.

That would be more than ideal. I broke about 2 inches off of it...How do I know what flare to get that screws into the D44 flex line?

It's gonna be really really slick that's for sure. Anytime works for me as long as I get the driveshaft in mine. Turns out I've gotta change the whole yoke too

I hate mud so I'm thinking I'm out. With all this rain it's going to be nasty and very slick. Plan on some new dents.

Chances are it'll be dusty by Sunday. If it was today, I'd expect a lot of mud, but 2 days of sunshine and a light breeze can dry it up quickly. I'm in for Sunday, what time?

I just bought a new hose off a Dakota so I now have 6 extra inches of rear brake hose. Gotta either replace the entire hard line or reflare the end
