Re: brake bending,flaring,cutting tools/kit

I recently purchased Eastwood's flaring tool that does 37 and 45 degree flares (the one that sells for $229.99) and have been flaring my stainless brake lines with no problems. Be sure that you don't use a tubing cutter on the stainless if you plan on flaring it as it work hardens the steel and makes flaring a pain. I cut mine with a cutoff tool on a Dremel and it seems to work fine.
