And Done!
Took about 5 hours. If I were 25 yo, maybe could have been done in 2.5 but I'm much closer to 65 than 25.
For the flex lines, 11mm on the brake line side, 14mm backup on the flex line itself and pull. They came off easily with no rounding. Rebuilt calipers, new Beck Arnley rotors (they are actually Zimmerman from Germany). Calipers came loaded so this job was wildly straight forward. Power bleed with a Motive pressure bleeder. Brake pedal with car not running is hard as a rock and does not slowly move downward. Car running the pedal feels pretty low but I'm thinking the new brakes need to settle in. Cer is starting it's 600 miles a week chores next week until it snows. I pull it off the road at first salt.
Thanks for all the advice.
