Can you remove the factory crush washer that is triangular shaped from the brake line? I'm installing brembo's and I have new crush washers but I don't know if I'm supposed to cut or grind the old one off first here is a pic of it....

That brass seal should be replaced and it should be round. That happens from to much torque.

Uncle Moe

Problem is I cannot get it off do I just rip and tear?

If you’re changing to Brembo calipers, you should replace the flex lines also and you’ll need a 3mm spacer between the hub and spindle

Funny u mentioned the spacer Blue... On the driver side it looks evenly spaced but on the passenger side i noticed it right away... Any idea where i can purchase such spacer here in Canada? And how much they will cost me? Heres a pic of the semi-finished product... i didnt bleed them yet because i need a piece of hose to go over the bleeder screws so brake fluid doesnt drip all over my painted calipers and make my work all for nothing... I think they shoulda had the bleeders on the bottom instead of the top... I painted the one rotor and then ran out of paint so i still need to paint the passenger side... Wheich sode do u guys like better?
