1967 L-68 Corvette

I'm replacing the main brake line. I'm trying to do this without removing the body. The front bolt is not attainable. There is no space for a wench. Any help? I guess i can break of the old clamp and axcess the bolt. But i still could not reattach the new bolt. Thanks

Hi Tyler!

I am very familiar with the dreaded bolt you are referring to. As you suggested, I will typically cut/break the old clamp to allow access to the bolt. Loosen the bolt as much as you can. When it comes time to reinstall the new clamp, cut the new clamp so you can slide it behind the bolt and then retighten the bolt. The bolt is accessible to snug it back up with a thin open-end wrench. Regards, Vince
