syngen smythe Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Hi guys. I just picked up a 1940 S7 in decent condition- except for the brakes. I am going to rebuild all cylinders and install all new lines. I see that it is 1/4 tubing, but does anyone know what the fitting size flare is? Double, single, ...? I have not been able to undo any fittings yet (too rusted) and want to order parts. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobileparts Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Syngen Smythe, If you want to go NEW --- I have the Master Cylinder, Wheel Cylinders, Brake Hoses, and Brake Shoes --- all NEW with NO Core Charges and NO return shipping..... Most of those fittings are not conventional -- and you are going to have to work at cleaning them and keeping them useable... If you can call me for FREE --- here is my phone number --- 516 - 485 - 1935...... New York..... Yours, Craig..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 In Weatherhead fittings (brass) the number after the X tells you the size of the fitting in 1/16". For example a specific fitting 131 x 3 is an inverted flare fitting for 3/16" line. 131 tells you it is an inverted flare fitting. if the number after the x is 2 it would be for a 1/8" line, 4 would be 1/4" line, 5 would be 5/16" etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c49er Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 He's probably looking for the special fittings at the wheel cylinders or up by.the M/cylinder....can be tough to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
