Help! Russell SS Brake Lines
Hello,
I have installed Hawk HPS pads, SLP Line lock kit, now working on the Russell SS Brake Lines.
My problem: The old lines have a bolt, copper washer, the brake line, then another copper washer.
What do I reuse? Just the bolt? The Russell kit comes with ss washers. Or do I need the old washers? Then what are the ss washers in the kit for?
I can't seem to unscrew the copper washers off the old bolt that I need to reuse. Any thoughts?

The washers have probably mashed themselves onto the bolt threads as they were tightened.
This may be of help
