Rear Brake Hose Removal - Advice appreciated

If you do retract the armor far enough to get a line wrench on it the fitting may still be frozen to the line. Soak liberally with PB Blaster for a few days. Then put the line wrench on and then clamp across the end of the wrench with vice-grips. this will compress the end of the line wrench enough to take out any slack

Yeah, I forgot to say that, soak the bejeezuz out of the threads while getting the coating off. Clamping the end of the wrench sounds like a reasonable idea, but there isn't much room for that. Hope it works for him.
