Wheel Cylinder-helpful hint

When i did my rear drums/shoes and wheel cylinders the fitting behind the wheel cylinder was frozen in (the nut was rusted onto the brake line) I called my buddy after many attemts to take it off without breaking the line.

The hint was unbolt the cylinder and turn the whole cylinder off and the brake line behind will stay conneted. It worked

I screwed the new cylinders on and checked for leaks, bled the lines and we were good!!

Just figured i would post this hint, it saved me from doing brake lines...for now...
