Hey Mike - raising this from the dead. I got my free Goodridge Phantom lines on finally this past weekend, and I wanted to add some insight.

First: For the 10MM fittings on both ends - I do NOT recommend using a normal 10MM wrench to get them. Mine were just slipping away on them. The best purchase I ever made years ago (which also helps a ****-ton w/ bleeding the lines btw), was this 10/12MM combination wrench. It'll wrap all the way around the fitting, and prevent rounding the fitting off.



Also, fair warning: the bolts holding on one of the blocks I think on the rear (maybe...) is attached to a bracket next to the shock. Not surprisingly, you can easily bend that bracket while trying to loosen it, so I just put a crescent wrench in between it and the shock, to prevent it from moving around.



Other than that, don't think I had anything else to add. PB blaster is nice but that wrench I have made its use not needed at all, in the end
