it could be done but i wouldn't drive it 2 miles like that let alone 2 hrs. it could easily cause you to spin the car. have you tried looking at the hardware store or autoparts store for fittings to make it work like it is? are you just talking about the thread being different on the lines?

I've been driving w/o rear brakes for a number of months now heh I don't LIKE it, but my worthless friend won't finish the job on the brakes -_-
I just am very cautious now, and when I'm coming to a stop, I'm coasting way before hand, and am gentle on the brakes when stopping. I won't deny, if I had to lock them up, I'd be pretty screwed me thinks.
