how do i know what size fitting to go with for my Brake Master Cylinder?(-3AN, -6AN, -8AN, ect.) i was planning on replacing all my brake lines w/ steel braided lines and earl fittings. iv tried searching, but no luck. thanks for any input.

 

Don't use braided line, use steel hardlines. Use no bigger than -3AN.

 

Threre is a unique fitting for you master cyliner.. You need a 1.25mm x 10.0 thread pitch

just go to a fitting store and tell them what your doing . There is only a 12.0 and a 10.0 fitting..

They are not AN fittings.!!!

Better yet, use stainless steel hardlines, and polish them. Make sure to get seamless lines so you don't have any leak problems. Use 3/16" hardlines, single-flare them at 45 degrees, and reuse the stock fittings (though nickel-plated fittings would look great, if you can find them in this metric size).

 

thanks for all of your input. so i think i might go with dwolsten's suggestion. just use stock fittings and go w/ stainless steel lines.

do you know where would be the best place to get the lines that are a reasonable price?
