I've done hard line replacements on 4 or 5 cars, just never a 986.
Any Tips, Tricks, Videos, Photos or Tutorials would be appreciated. These new lines are way too expensive to kink up during installation.
thanks!

On many makes of cars, the brake hardlines are installed while it is a bare chassis, meaning some sections cannot be replaced without substantial disassembly to get the replacement lines in. We have actually seen GM models that require dropping out the engine and transmission cradle in order to replace the passenger side front hard line. When we encounter this problem, we use DOT approved nickel copper replacement lines, which have two major advantages: Then are malleable enough to be formed in place, and they will never rust.
