Question Brake Lines

My rear brake line is leaking for the driver side. I wanted to replace it but found that I don't have the proper wrench sizes.

Anyone know what size wrenches I need to borrow or buy? Anything I should know before I start removing the lines?

your best to grab a set of "line wrenchs" they look a tad different then normal wrenchs and are vital in ensureing you dont strip any of those line ends.

Could I get away and do the job with normal wrenches?
I'm missing some wrenches from my set and was gonna buy a new set.
Should I invest in the gear/stubby/ or crow foot wrenches?? Anyone have any testmonies on which type of wrenches are good?

sometimes you can get away with using regular wrench, but if i were you i'd go to crappy tire and buy a set of flare wrenches, think its 12mm (not sure though)
