Hey guys

Out of all the years working on various cars I have never encountered this problem before.

Upgraded to DPI SS hard brake lines and SS hoses and for some reason I have the front caliper lines and even rear caliper lines to brake hoses slightly leak.

I've taken them apart 4-5x and made sure that they are aligned with hole on brake hoses while tightening up and still find a slight drip.

Is there a trick towards getting these damn lines to seal/seat properly?

I can't properly bleed brakes as a result and have minor bubbles a result.

Thanks
D

No tips. I would contact the vendor.
