Title: New Brake lines
Post by: Fat650 on December 14, 2016, 09:12:21 AM

I'm after the size of the hard lines for the brakes if anyone knows.
Because my modifications have taken over where the standard brake lines run i am looking to put new hard lines through the whole car. I can buy new nipples  but nowhere states what size tube is required?

anyone?

Normal size is 6mm I believe...

Also the brake unions are not the usual stock type, they are size M10 x 1.25.

ok, so apparently the brake lines are 3/16 according to the brake place. I'm ordering new nipples from axel gerstl so that's no drama.
I found a place in Aus that does braided brake lines as well so just confirming a few things with them and then i'll get those too.

Thanks guys
