    Replacing damaged brake hose

    So I was removing rust and scale while the old ladies VX is up on jack stands and I damaged the rear passenger side brake hose with the wire wheel. I am going to tackling replacing the line this weekend and wanted to ask the group should I expect any issues changing the hoses? My biggest fear having problems braking the connector (nuts) loose. Any advice?

    I have read the work shop manual about bleeding the brake lines and understand ABS fuse must be removed before the bleeding process and the engine needs to be running while performing the bleeding process. Is the ABS fuse under the hood or dash? Is there anything else I should be aware of?

    Thanks,

    Soggy
