Agreed with above, I would never put mineral oil through a DOT system and vice-versa. DOT fluid will destroy mineral system seals in a week and mineral oil will swell DOT seals and render brake inoperable. I'd do what Gary said and use the SRAM hose connector, to pull new hoses through, though I...
If you can't jump the bike in it's restricted form, you need to work on your technique. Just watch the vids of Chris Smith on EMBN. That's not a dig at anyone, it's just honest. That said, there are some bikes, as with any MTB, that are better than others. As stated above, it also depends on a...

No they don't, but sometimes the special tool makes for a much easier and neater job, which is what a customer is paying for. Anyone can grab a mech and bend it back into shape, but that weakens the mech and risks damage to the more expensive component (the mech). Using the mech hanger tool...
