Duncan. Thanks, but never mind. See below. Not going to do
one-at-a-time.

Never mind on the wheel cylinder. I'm going to make this trip with the
one disabled (line plugged) then order a full set of 4 when I get back
home.

I'm at the house now. Customer done. Small rivets stuck in the left
front brake line to stop the leaking. Cool pull to the right when
stopping.

Going to shave, wash the dog, wash me, then either take a nap and head
out at first light or just go on and head out if the Monster has kicked
in.

See y'all later today.
