REmoving wheel cylinders
It's a small line, about 10 inches long that connects from the main brake line into the wheel cylinder. What is it called? How do you remove it from the wheel cylinder? Am trying to and the brake line is twisting on me. Do i spin the bolt 360 degrees or wiggle it back and forth?

it is also part of the brake line assembly. Now to remove that nut from the wheel cylinder, you need to use a flare nut wrench. I have been in the same situation before and have found normal wrenches dont work.
