      I am in the process of replacing the brake and fuel lines on my 96 Accord LX. Fortunately, I could still get pre-bent lines from Majestic with fittings so that work is done.

      Installing the lines looks fairly straight forward, except for the front line that goes from the proportioning valve to the front right wheel. I have taken out a bunch of stuff so I have good access for the job. My question is this, is it OK to bend the line a little at the end so I can get it through that hole near the wheel? (Then bend it back to connect to the hose). If not, is there a trick to threading this line thr :S ough?

      Thanks.

        you can bend it a little. just don’t kink it.
        Also make sure you can get it back into shape.

          Got the brake line in. Did have to bend it just a little to straighten it enough so I could get it through the access hole. 🙂
