I have finally re-bent the stainless lines I ordered for the 93. Does anyone know if the fittings need some sort of sealant or something? I honestly dont know a whole lot about hydraulic systems, so please chime in. I just dont want to incur any more leaks than the ones I think will come from my rebends.

If they are proper double flares, they seal themselves. No additional sealant necessary

No worries, thanks. I do have one re-bend that comes out the fitting at a slight angle. I'm hoping that it seals.
