Watched a guy at KLAX fix a hydraulic leak in under 20 minutes

I was over at LAX last Tuesday picking up some parts and saw a mechanic working on a 737-800 ramp. He just used a standard flare nut wrench and a backup wrench on the line, no special tools. It made me realize I've been overcomplicating those jobs in my head. Any of you guys got a go to trick for tight spots like that?

That's a 737-700, not an 800.

Bet you watched him do it once, doesn't mean it's always that easy.
