leomara Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) I've discovered that flare nuts for 1/4 inch and 5/16 inch brake lines only come with one thread size and those thread sizes are too small for the original unions on my car. The 1/4 line fittings require a 1/2 inch thread and the 5/16 line fittings require a 5/8 inch thread. All the fittings for 1/4 inch line I've found only come with a 3/8 inch thread and all the fittings for 5/16 inch line only come with a 1/2 inch thread. Any known sources for the sizes needed?

$um Fun Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Leo, I bought some blanks from Straight Eight for the 5/16 line and tapped the back and may also have the others you need. https://straight-eight.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
