While you're at it, if you haven't already, get these:

At least the 4" & 7" ones.
FAR superior to flare nut wrenches for tight nuts -- they won't spread.

As you all have to know, I love mine, but they are a little tough to get on the master cylinder lines at the combination valve. One I could just enough to break the line loose, but not the other and I don't remember which.
With the 7", you can actually get on a line nut at a wheel cylinder with enough torque to shear the line nut and it won't slip. Not Mine, not even a GMC, but fortunately wheel cylinders are cheap and the line had to be replaced anyway. (You know this was not a good day.)
