AWD, I mentioned the rubber lines, as that was my fluid loss, squisshy pedal trouble.

I replaced the rears and am trying to find the time to replace the fronts with SS lines.

My bad. I thought you were reffering to a crack/leak IN the rubber lines, not where they connect. Sorry.

Its really my bad AWD, I was referring to the rubber portion of the line. You were referring to the threads. Sorry man.

I... Uhhh... think we should disagree to agree, or sunthin like that... I guess... Iount know!

I think we managed to cover everyting, between us, huh?

Bottom line is: Brake fluid doesn't just evaporate, from inside your system. It's gotta GO somewhere... Get OUT somehow!
