I have never had any luck with flaring kits.. I've only used the cheaper ones I guess. Best thing to do is buy the right lenth and bend it to fit, be sure to get the right flare/fittings on the new tube.. also size. However, I've heard of people taking in brake lines to a shop and paying $5 to get it flared. Good Luck.

Napa sells preflared connections of various lengths along with couplers to join sections.

I just replaced my entire line from front to back. Pretty easy.

Good luck
