Rear brake line replacement
I am planning on replacing the rear brake line (I have a rusted line that brew out) I plan to replace from the coupler as close to the master cylinder/ABS module as possible to the furthest back coupler.
I have 2 questions:
1) I was planning on using steel lines. Do I need a Double flare tool or a Bubble flare tool?
2) Is there another option rather than the steel line replacement that is better or easier?
Thanks
**EDIT**
By the way I am working on a 1998 Chevy Blazer 4.3l engine 4dr 4wd with ABS

you shouldnt need any flaring tool, if you just buy the exact length lines and use connectors. BUT you said your going from the abs unit. i did all metal brake lines the other day on i believe a 95 tahoe. and it uses the common 3/16ths for front but every end that went to the abs unit was bigger so i did have to cut and reflare every line, sucked.
