Brakes problem
1971 Volkswagen Beetle 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual
----------------------------------------------------------------
How do we replace the brake line from the master cylinder back to the T? We can't seem to find where the union is. Do we locate from under the car or from the floor boards? We are fairly certain the leak is either in the junction or in the line to it...any help would sure be appreciated!

Hi rollinsclan,

Follow the pipe until you come to the joints. Make sure you know where the leakage is occurring before removal.
