I'm doing a 5 lug conversion on my 92. Got the rear done, now working on the front. I'm trying to get the soft line disconnected from the hard lines. Those fittings will not budge. I've tried PB Blaster, heating them up with a torch, and vice grips....nothing is working.
Anyone have any advice?? I can't cut the line, I don't have the flare tool, or know how to use one. What did you guys do?
Thanks for the help.

Mine came off without a problem using the proper flared-end wrenches. They look like a closed-end wrench with a little slit that allows you to slide the wrench over the hard line. By the way, you can reuse the soft lines you've got. You don't have to take them off. The only thing you'll have to do is grind the little tab off the sn95 calipers. Be sure to use the sn95 banjo bolts to attach the old soft lines to the new calipers. Good luck with your conversion! I just did mine a couple of months ago.
