You need a double-flair tool, small line cutter, and small flair nut wrenches, a tube bender, and brake fluid-once you remove the damaged tube, take it to a parts store to get the proper diameter tube, and fittings. use the old tubes as a pattern to bend the new line, install a nut end, flair the tube with the flair tube, then do the other end. Takes some practice, but I just did a Jeep Wrangler (all lines)-just remember, if one line rotted out, the others are probably not in great shape either, so consider doing all of them, it is a PITA to do but if you pay someone to do it the cost is going to be brutal, if you learn to do it yourself it has a relatively short learning curve. It can be somewhat time-consuming, but it is not beyond the abilities of a backyard mechanic.
