I need to replace the front brake lines, which are 3/16". I would like to use bulk brake line. What are the sizes of the fittings going to the ABS for the front drivers and passenger's brake lines. Not sure why they are different sized fittings, but they are. Seems to be an OEM ABS.
Thanks

That's cause they are metric auto parts should have those as well. Here are videos to help you make your own line or replace the brake flex hose.

The process is the same in most cases.

It figures they are metric. What ever happened to SAE. Anyway, do you know the sizes of the fittings, and do you carry them? I would prefer to buy from you as opposed to a parts store.

Hey we just fix them and give advice on this site. Youcan go to GMPARTSDIRECT. Com and see if they have them. They will be the correct ones. And they will ship them to you. Cheaper than a dealer.
