I'm changing the break lines on my Evo 9 for some uprated 1s but the top nut on the line is so so stiff and caroded and dident really want to risk braking the seal just incase it snaps more then the seal.. Has any1 got any good tips on how to remove these plz? O and I also tryed soaking them in wd40 but still won't budge ....

Spanner over it and light taps might shock it loose. Otherwise brute force and ignorance usually works. ;)

Get a proper brake line spanner. A couple of quid but infinitely useful. WD40 over night also works well to help.
