The brake line before the " differential flexible line" (Hope you know what I mean..) is shot right before the "fitting".. And I was wondering how this fitting is working.. 'cause I haven't find any info on this.. SHould I cut the line & the fitting?

thanks
 
Standard brakeline fitting. I believe it's 11mm (at least it is on my '89). Soak the heck out of it with PB Blaster, put some vice-grips on the flexline fitting, use a flare wrench on the brakeline fitting, tap the flare wrench with a dead blow hammer to break the seal and you should be good to go!

If it's that badly rusted, you should probably invest in a new flexline and new brakelines. Check your other brakelines also.
