The bolt that attaches the hardline to my brake line is stuck and it won't move.... are the threads on the passenger side reverse threaded?
I soaked it down with wd-40 to loosen it up but no luck...I don't want to strip it any more than it already is...

Use some PB Blaster on it, and make sure you are using a line wrench. As far as the threads, they are not reversed.

thanks....hope it's not too stripped to still get a line wrench on...

If it does get stripped, put a set of vice grips on it and clamp them down hard. Give them a good firm jerk and you should break it loose. You can do the same to tighten it back up. The metal the tube nuts are made out of are soft enough so the teeth from the vice grips can dig into them but not deform the nut. But only do this if you have already messed the threads up

Well I tried a regular wrench last night and went right to the visegrips after that....and it still stripped it some.......rusty *** bolts..
And I had it clamped down pretty good....didn't want to crush the line.
The threads aren't messed up but the head of the bolt is a little worn now...haha
