Separate axes. Hard or flexible, a line _could_ be made with a collar fitting. For brakes, the flexible lines screw in directly. But, they _could_ be made to have collars that came apart without bodily unscrewing the whole flexible line, like LP flexible lines do, and I believe like the flexible lines on my Unimog's HIAB crane. (And like hard brake lines.) It's an engineering choice, and not inherent. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
