Part of me questions the need for a brake line tutorial. I know it's a controversial area among some people.
Brakes are obviously one of the most critical parts of a car, and aren't the place to be messing around without knowing what you are doing. I've read posts from people on here with seriously modified trucks who have done it all themselves, but still pay a garage to do brake work...
Part of me thinks that if you need a tutorial to undo and replace the brake lines and bleed the system and aren't 100% confident in what you are doing, that you shouldn't be touching the brakes on your car. On the other hand, people are obviously going to try it anyway and should have the information to hand to ensure they do it correctly and safely, so why not have the information out there in a tutorial so that it's easy for people to see what's involved to do it properly and safely?

I agree. Cock it up and kill someone you are in the shit. If a garage cocks it up then they are liable.
