A line wrench is needed to remove brake line fittings. You may be able to use a file to reshape the fittings and get a line wrench on; otherwise you'll have to use vice grips.

lots of PB Blaster or wd-40, let soak overnight. keep spraying it with pbblaster every hr or so, they will come loose(i used pb blaster when i put earl's stainless steel lines on a caprice w/ 160,000 miles)
