    How hard is it to change fuel and brake lines. My husband is quite handy but doesn't think he knows how to do this. Can you give us some advice? It's going to cost too much money to get it done

    We need to replace 2 upper ball joints and the left front coil spring. Can we do this ourselves?

    Thanks for any advice

    Each job will require specialized tools:

    . Replacing fuel and brake lines requires buying a double flaring tool, tubing bender, and flare wrenches.

    . Replacing the upper ball joints requires buying a ball joint removal tool or access to a floor press. You should buy a Haynes Manual or Honda Service Manual for this project. Afterwards, the alignment should be checked.

    Your husband can likely make the repairs himself, if he buys the specialized tools and researches what's involved.
