Yeah.... but if he doesn't have a coupler, the snap ring won't do him any good. He needs a set of couplers. That specific set is stupid expensive. (Cub Cadet want's about $60 A PIECE for them!!!) Better off using a Pioneer coupler (or other brand). Hunt around, they are out there.


You say you can flare it..... but "regular" flare (the degree(s) that flaring blocks are you buy about anywhere) is 45 deg, and hydraulic flare is 37 deg. It will work.... but has a possibility of leaks. As low of pressure as it is, it will probably be fine. But, if used with the sleeve, the sleeve is for 37 deg. You are better off finding a 37 deg flaring tool.

Brake line will work, yes.

You can buy the nuts and sleeves from McMaster Carr.
