Just put on new brake line, new calipers, new rotors, new brake pads. Brake fluid is leaking at banjo bolt and appears to be coming out of the caliper side.

Good evening,

Did you replace the copper washers for the line? If you did not, they need to be replaced. They are 1-time use washers. They crush only one time.

If you do not tighten it enough, it will leak.
