    Question re: assembling new brake lines/hoses ?

    Remembering how difficult the old hard lines were to disconnect/remove, is there anything I should use on the threads and fittings when assembling all the new lines and hoses? Thanks

    I use Never Seize, but am very careful to keep it away from fluid contact.
    You could consider Plasti-Dip clear spray to seal the connections after assembly.
