[alfa] Re: alfa] hard brake lines



Richard's advice is generally right on. however, i believe the spider fittings are actually 3/8-24 thread. i too thought they were 10mm, but after careful review on the playing field, turns out they are english?
perhaps left over from the Girling/Lucas days. it is amazing that it will fit a 10mm thread though.
I;d say reuse the old ones if they are OK. 3/16 (4mm) is what is on the car. double flare for brake lines (single for AN - 3AN is the right size).
It is not hard to do, just takes patience. Make sure you test all joints under pressure before you drive the car!
