What size fitting front brake line.

Changing front brakes to strange units. What size is the caliper end of the front factory flex lines? I know they say that they wont work so Im going to try and find a fitting that will.

Thanks,
Aaron

Re: What size fitting front brake line.

if you still have the brakes off the car just take them into a auto parts store and try it out. you can never depend on what they should be. you dont want to get a number - buy the fittings, take the old ones off, put the new ones on, put the brakes on and then find out it does not fit. there are times when mfg's run out of something and grab a part similar in size. it will not hurt the brakes but it will give you a headache.
or call strange for the size and buy one fitting that size and try it out.
or go to an auto parts store and buy a few fittings in each close size and take the ones that dont fit back.

Re: What size fitting front brake line.

ok brakes installed cleanly and easy! looks great but no lines lol! the calipers use a -3an so is there any fitting to convert the front hard line to a 3an? what size fitting is on the end of the front hard line?
