Manufacturer doesn't need loops, he cut to exact length. Loops are commonly
used to use up excess length. If you decide to cut and flare, YOU SHOULD USE A
DOUBLE FLARE.

Another loop advocate... I've never seen a loop in a brake hardline before..
You guys did notice I said its a hardline right? Runs from the junction block
at the pumpkin to the backing plate.
I'm a little nervous about the junction block giving up threads... I'll hit
everything with PB Blaster before I try anything...

You should not need a flare tool. Line is available in multiples of
about 6", just loop the portion you don't need.

Is the weather as much fun down your way as it is here? Raining right
now, snow some around noon time. My driveway is a slushfest.

Lying on my back replacing a brake line isn't all that much fun,
however if the repair places want a bunch of money for a 10 minute
repair I'll do it...
