Where can I get a pair of brake line bending plyers

[Guest Anonymous]

I am redoing the brake lines and I can not seem to find such a pair locally. Sears does not have them, Northern Tool, Lowes nor Home Depot does not either.

Where can I find a pair cheap?

Thanks!

If you're using OE BMW lines (I LOVE them - but they only last about 20 years or so) - you can bend them with all sorts of creative methods, because they're nice n' SOFT!!!

ultra sharp bends at the end can be accomplished with the box end of a wrench just gently grabbing the threaded nut end - then bend around the end of the wrench.

find cylindrical objects around the house and use them to make appropriately sized radaii (radiuses?)

beer bottle necks work reel good, too! *hick!*

I've used tubing benders before - and actually PREFER the wrench method where required for tight curves.

HTH!

Bend by hand... really... I was able to get everything I replaced just right by patiently working the lines exactly the way I wanted them.
