 I have always had issues with putting a nice double flare on brake lines with conventional tools.
 Saw this listed when I was researching brake lines (as I plan on replacing the 73 year old lines on my Willys).  What the hell, so I ordered one. Works as advertised - I was pleased.

Also tried out a new (to me) type of brake line, 3/16" Copper-Nickel. Very corrosion resistant, bends easily, & flares nicely. I'm sold!  I know it's been available for a while now, but as I got out of the auto parts business in 2004 I was out of the loop. What is the general consensus in the CJ2A world?

..... & one of them moves under it's own power!!
