The money spent on a tubing bender will save all the childrens ears in the
nieghborhood. And as I remember there are some bends that have to be made
with the bender because the radius is so small. After losing the brakes for
the third time I said I would never drive her again until all the brake
lines were replaced. It was a lot of work but well worth it. There is
nothing like losing your brakes going downhill and the road tees into the
other one. I would bet she went up on two wheels when I cranked the turn,
and no e brake either. You can get a tubing bender for less than 10 bucks,
it's obviouly not a snap on, but they work and you won't kink any of the
bends.
