I'm going to be running new 1/4 inch brake lines for the front wheels and I needed a
double flare tool. Since 1979 the TBucket has had single 45° flare on all four wheels,
but I'm going to be redoing the front lines, so they might as well be a double flare.
That means I had to buy another tool for the safety of all my family and friends !
I bought the Lisle 33260 that does single and double flares for 3/16" and 1/4" brake
lines. Since it's not a do everything flaring tool, it's cost was pretty reasonable at
about $60.

What do think?
Looks like this tool will do a nice job of double flares.
