Rear brake line problem

[Knight Viper]

I tried installing my recently purchased CCW drag wheel package and the rims were hitting the brake line bolt on the rear caliper. I pulled the wheels back off to file down the bolt but when I reinstalled the lines (with the washer) they were leaking. I'm not sure if I distorted the aluminum block the bolt goes through or what I did but I need to get it fixed this week for next weekends 'crab feast and cruise'
I don't mind upgrading to stainless line or replacing the stock ones if this is my problem.
TIA, KV

I don't believe the washers are meant to be reused. Replace the washer and you should be fine. Most auto part stores carry them.

Thanks Jim, that would sure be an easy fix and one I could try today.
PS. I'm still loving thoes 3:55 gears even with the SC

It's working so far and it gave me a good excuse to flush the lines with some fresh fluid.

Glad you got it fixed.

Man I wish I was on your side of the country for the crab feast and cruise.
