Technical Support / Re: replacing brake lines on a 1998 Beaver Patriot Savannah.

This job is pretty much straight forward brake work but the working quarters are tight. Now I am a fairly fit, fairly low body fat,(15%) person, but I am 6'1" and 220 lbs so I don't fit well in a lot of places. I also have a repaired shoulder that doesn't do well with overhead work. If your generator is on a front slide than run it out that helps a lot. The higher you can get the coach also helps! I drove up on ramps raising the coach 4.5 inches, 6 would have been even better, 12 would have been great.
This job is doable, but take your time and break it up into small segments. I was sore for a week after I finished, probably should have slowed down the work but I tend to force my way through.
Hopefully you will git a tip or two out of this,
