A friend came over to replace his rear caliper this morning. He got all of the necessary parts from FCPGroton. Unfortunately, he got the right rear caliper instead of the left rear. So back to square one.

Now, I couldn't get the hard brake line off the rear caliper. The nut wouldn't budge. I even bought an 11mm wrench! Tapping with a hammer (on the wrench) didn't help any. I ran a little PB Blaster under the nut, no luck.

What am I doing wrong. I never had a caliper off before.
