I had to replace my power booster and master cylinder for the braking system. While bleeding the lines a line twisted and broke off. The line that is at the front of the master cylinder. There is an extension that goes from the cylinder to the fitting that connects the line that's where it snapped off. What cabinet do? Do I have to replace the entire line? The line goes from metal to a crimped fitting to mesh then another crimped fitting back to metal. And that's as far as I can see down. Can anyone help me?

Hello,

On this you basically have two options. First is to replace the complete line. Or contact your local hydraulic shop and they can make you a custom line/adapter to fit your existing brake line.
Depending on the complexity of the fitting and line, you might have to take the rest of the line off and take it to the shop for them to fix it.
