Earl's Brake Line Question
I currently have a 1987 with disc/drum combo. However, I will soon change my rear end to a 94 rear with disc brakes. I want to order Earl's brake line kit but I am unsure what part# I want.
I think I need #28A190, but will this also fit the newer 94 brakes?
Also, would solo bleeders #280029 fit all the way around.
Thanks for the advice,
Bill

I don't know about the solo bleeders, but that hose part number is correct.

I think the difference in speed bleeders is the thread type: older brakes = coarse thread, and the newer brakes = fine thread. my origionals were 87, disk, and I had coarse threads..... I have used 2 different new styles, 89 and 96..... they are essentially the same caliper, both newer styles used the fine thread speed bleeders.
When you order them, ask the sales person about the threads to verify that you are getting the correct style.
