This brake line runs from LH front caliper flex line , over frame to 3 port line manifold on frame . Had to drop skid plate for access 9mm wrench rusted fittings . Bent new steel line, 3/8 wrench fittings and installed . Cut old line and drove 9mm socket over fittings to remove them . Truck now serviceable .
