I am super irriated with making my braided lines myself. I know the procedure on how to make them. Got my first fitting on no problem, but now the second fitting keeps backing itself off as I am screwing in the stud.:evil: I stripped a fitting and luckly I had an extra. Either way I am going to bring it to them because I think the cutters I am using is not sharp enough to make a perfect cut. Anyone I should go see there? ---

Umm an lines are easy to make… Wrap some masking tape over the area to cut… Use a oxide disc to cut the line, either handheld or a chop saw and assemble the line ends, use a vice if needed and get yourself some an wrenches… There are tons of videos/websites with instructions on diy ---

Making AN lines is one of my favorite things to do. Lol. They’re gonna laugh at you if you can’t do it. What brand fittings/hose are you using? are you lubing the threads before you install? -10+ is where it can get to be a pain. ---

Use a cutoff wheel and it makes the cuts so much better to work with. I just did some an 6 for my car and the hose slid right in the fitting. ---

yeah, but lube the THREADS with some motor oil before assembly to prevent galling. ---

Shit… this thread reminds me to grab a set of “soft jaws”… nothing pisses me off more than brand new shiny SCRATCHED hose ends! BTW… I have a bunch of odd 6, 8, and 10 fittings laying around that I would like to make go away if anyone needs them… switched over to Swivel ORB instead. ---

guys at ferrys are awesome. my cutter was not sharp enough to have a clean cut so it was backing it out. thumbs up to everyone at ferrys and I ended up buying more lines from them. ---

I need to swing by there and pick up a 180\* fitting for my setup this week. Man fuel systems are the gay
