My brake line on the passenger side became brittle from age, and has cracked right where the hose meets the metal housing to keep it in place behind the tire. I have the replacement hose, but am not really sure how to go about replacing it. I could use some pointers from someone who has done this before. Preferably someone with experience changing it on a corsica. Thanks, Trina. [img:f314951887]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/398523_Trina_012_1.jpg[/img:f314951887]

if you don't know how to do it take it to someone that does. Especially on brakes. SAve yourself some time and money by doing it this way. Brakes are not for beginners if they have no idea what to do.
