What about it? It is easy. I have replaced several and have good brakes. Just make sure you bleed the system when you are done. I replace if that is what you are asking. Never repair or splice. I made my own by measuring diameter of line with a micrometer and bought 25' and the chamfer tool from NAPA. I read the instructions on the inside of the tool case and made 2 10' lines and my truck stops better than I can ever remember. Make sure you use the old ends or buy new and put them on the new line correctly before making your ends on the line. It is easy.
