Jim,

What material did you use for the lines ?

When I was working on the '82 Jeep Scrambler, I used S/S, but there are others.

I was looking for new line a while back, found not only S/S, which isn't as expensive as I thought, but also a Nickel Copper, is that like "Cupronickel" ?
It stated they were easier to bend and corrosion resistance.


Just a thought:  "Is there an easy way to form a Double Flare" ?

I've always used the Mandrel with tapered tool and pin die, but I've had my problems... I remember a while back my brother came up with an electric crimper for a Double Flare, did a decent job !   I don't remember the manufacturer !
