One of the dirty secrets of the CMC unit is that it uses a different thread
than the original, so in order to install it, you have to cut your clutch line,
remove and discard the stock fitting, install a new one, and flare the line
again with a brake flaring tool.
One of many reasons why I vastly prefer just installing a factory replacement
unit, especially since they are so cheap nowadays.
