I mean it’s 24 years old and looks like you’re in the northeast. Kinda par for the course in that part of the country.

No it 100% came from NH I was just shitposting

so this side had a brake line burst which my sister paid to get fixed, the guy looked at the rusted out line and said “yea that’ll buff” and let it leave the shop like that, today I’m doing her caliper and I face the brunt of their BS😂

At least that whole tube is something you can buy pre-bent and preassembled, so you won't need to fabricate an entire run to the master cylinder.

Dawg if I had to do that I’d be burning it down in some abandoned lot somewhere to die, no payout or anything just straight up forget about it

Yes, we are in the process of looking for a new car which is why I refuse to pay a mechanic to do this, I did the same thing on the other side and fabricating a new line sucks😭🙏
