Brake line flaring tool
 
Does anybody have a recommendation for a decent tubing flaring tool? I had a really nice one but it seems to have disappeared.:confused:

Double flaring for brakes. Snap On if you like spending money...

1/3 for the tool. 2/3 for the name!

Check your neigthbors' garages. Maybe yours walked over there.
You can get a decent double flaring tool from Mac, NAPA, Sears without having to mortgage the house for a SnapOn. I'd avoid Harbor Freight for this one. Have fun and I've always heard that its much better to put the fitting on the tube before flaring the end.

Hey John don't forget you'll need bubble flare capability for the Jag calipers. If you need to get a tool might as well get one that does it all. I used one of these recently on stainless, pretty sweet set up.Professional Brake Tubing Flaring Tool - Brake Flaring Tool - Brake Tube Flaring

Nick,
I was looking at those but I'm having a tough time with the $250.00 for occasional use.
