   RW> Been there, done that. I usually ended up under the vehicle, kicking the   
   RW> tire and wheel with my foot. That's when it pays to carry a jack-stand   
   RW> in the car...   
      
   I tried kicking, crowbars, torch, and finally resorted to the rubber maul.  It   
   took a good smack to finally get that rotor off.   
      
   RW> Saw that. My question would include; why didn't you paint the hardline,   
   RW> knowing that the old line was as rusted as it was? Clear coat it, let it   
   RW> dry, install the line, then touch up what needs to be touched up after   
   RW> the install.   
      
   I just hope there is no problems on the rack and pinion side of things.  I   
   don't think there is.  I am going to have to have someone turn the wheel with   
   the truck on while I take a peek at the high pressure side of the power   
   steering.  I expect it to be spraying all over the place.  I can even smell it   
   at times getting burned on the engine.     
      
   Need to wait for a warm weekend.  Getting cold up here now and doing this in   
   the garage would make for a big mess.
