Hello,
I just bought my first 2000 Lc on Wednesday and obviously started work right away. The rear driver's side brakeline (front to rear) was leaking horribly so I ordered the part #( 47322-60732($85.30)). Very easy to replace.
ALSO- do not put any pastes, ect on the threads.
Front connection can be found behind ds front tire, pop two tabs and bend it back and you will see it.
Tip: cut line with metal snipers and use a 10mm bolt extractor to get the threads out super easy.
Hand tighten then go with a 10mm wrench and tighten till hand tight with that. That's all you need. Will not leak if done correctly.
After words jack up on good spot on axle, remove tire, pop off the cover for brake bleeder, use a 10mm socket to loosen a small bit (mine was rusted shut a bit), then tighten back up quickly and attach a 1/2in tubing I believe to a container above the brake to get air out. Have someone pump the brake until hard, open the valve, depress brake and close once no more bubbles are coming or before the brake hits the floor. Refill fluid.
Also don't forget glasses- nothing like rust and dirt in the eyes.
Just posted this to assist someone else as it went super quick for me
