When I purchased the kit from Lancair, it came with a nicely made wrench for the purpose of installing the stainless steel pipe.  A really nice feature of the kit.  I'd check with Lancair to confirm that the wrench is still included in the kit.

Dear Art:
Did you still have this tool?  If you don't have any further use for it, I'd sure like to buy it.  The 5 Lancair IVP owners who are replacing their brake lines could pass it along as we need it.  What do you think?

Brake Line Stainless tube Installation in the Gear Legs

 

The brake line fix using SS Tube is fairly painless.

Put the plane on jacks and retract the gear to the point the gear is in the trailing position.

1.    Remove the wheel assembly, remove the Nylaflow tube. It has been a couple of  years but I think I cut the Nylaflow tube, welded the appropriate size deep socket on an 8" x1/2" pipe
