Replacing the rear line on my 1986

Hey all, new here, hope I can get some help with this,

I blew my rear brakes so I've replaced the steel hardline from front to rear with a 1/4mm line. This is already installed up to the proportioning valve but I've lost the original flare nut. I know it is a 14mm x 1.5 6mm id piece (bubble flare), but obviously I need to get one with 1/4 id or get some adapters.

I believe this piece http://www.agscompany.com/automotive...oly-armour/323 and an adapter will fix it up. Does anyone know a place in Vancouver or online I could get one? Thanks a lot to anyone that can help me with this.

Any alternatives or ideas?

its a great company too, been dealing with them for years. That fitting even works on 1/4" line. In the past i have drilled out a 6mm fitting to 1/4" to make them work.

Well, I'll be looking at about 20-20$ shipping for that part, which sucks, but I can live with.

But if anyone knows a supplier in Canada, (I'm in BC), that would be awesome, I'll just end up ordering it from fedhill if I can't find anything in a week or so anyways.

So does anyone know a Canadian supplier where I could get that or something similar?
