Rear brake line nuts seized



  Clio 182
trying to put braided lines on my rears yet the nuts have seized on and I can't get them off!!!
They are 11mm aren't they? Seem like 10.5mm as get play on the spanner and now they're rounding!
Any help guys?

Just replaced them myself. They are definatelly a pita tot remove.
I had one that i couldn't remove. In the end i had tot create a new line to the right side.

If its round already your basically screwed.

Soak them in wd... If a set of moleys don't work then just cut them off and replace the lines...

Someone local might have a flaring tool, pipe and some nuts...
 
Use a brake pipe spanner, wire brush the hell out of it and use some decent penetrating oil.

Worst case scenario is you will kink the pipe if you're too heavy handed with it.
