  Q: How to Repair a Brake Line Using Double Inverted Flaring on Chrysler Crossfire?

  A:

  Any brake hose or line service and repair should involve using a pre-formed metal tube, though double-wall steel tube may be used as a last resort when the factory parts are missing. Metal brake tubes must not get kinked or twisted, so special bending and flaring tools are required. Use a Tubing Cutter to remove the damaged tube and then ream the cut parts for the best flare. Pick up the new tube nut and place the tube piece with it into the flaring tool. Lay the gauge form across the tube's end and drive the flaring tool through the gauge jaws until the tube's edge reaches the notch in the gauge that matches its size. Lift the tool bar until it's barely touching the bottom of the gauge, put the plug into the gauge's tube, then fasten the compression disc on top with the screw facing the hole in the center. As soon as the plug gauge is standing straight on the tool's jaws, twist the handle and apply the inverted flare. At last, withdraw the plug gauge and connect both streamers to form the inverted flare in the center.

  Q: How to Remove and Install a Front Brake Line on Chrysler Crossfire?

  A:

  First, lift and support your vehicle and after that remove the wheel and tire group to gain access to the brake hose. Take the brake hose (4) off the caliper (3) and at the junction with the brake line (2) before you separate the hose. Installation should start by connecting the brake hose (3) to the connection on the brake line (2), run the brake hose (1) behind the Steering Knuckle (2) and attach it to the caliper. After that, link the brake hose (4) to the caliper (3), secure the wheel and tire assembly in place, lower the vehicle and finish by filling and bleeding the brake system.
