I know this is probably a no-brainer for those who have a bit of experiance. Anyway, I am currently replacing the rear drum brakes on my 2000 Ranger.
The fittings into the wheel cylinders were frozen but as I was replacing everything I just twisted them off. Now however I have come to where the two lines meet at the little ( brass ? ) junction on top of the pumpkin.
I have soaked them for two days with PB Blaster and still they won't release!
I started with proper wrench then worked my way to vise grips. By now the everything has become a bit rounded. I really don't want to replace the junction fitting as I think I then might be into ABS problems.
Any advice would be very welcome
Thanks in advance..
