need help on flare size.
need help on flare size.
I have a 88 camaro with rear brake drums. Im having trouble figuring out the flare size on the line that goes to the rear and hooks up to the center brake hose. And the flare that from the rear brake line that hooks up to the splitter in under the hood. Whatever size it is advanced auto parts and auto zone says thay dont carry flares that big. Napa might have it but they dont know exactly what size it is.does anyone know?

it should be 1/4od double flare, i assume you are looking for the threaded fittings that go on the tubing? i was looking for the same things and could not find them so i had to reuse the old ones, try a auto salvage for a used piece
on and the front lines are 3/16?

If you dont have the old evuipment you can search the salvage yard, i have a few of those laying arround but no clue as to what size.

It will be a metric treaded fitting but should be a 1/4" or so line, I can't recall the thread size off the top of my head.

what you need is european threads on 4 or 5 mm (i dont remember what size exactly) double flare line
fyi, most junk yards wont sell you brake line because of liability issues
