Ok....I will try to explain the best I can till I can get home and get a clear pic:

On the passenger side on the car behind the front wheel and fender liner, there are TWO brake lines that go to the rear of the car for the brakes......

They are offset from each ohter and both use a different attachement style...(one is male and one is female).

I need to know what brass fittings I need to reattach new line to them. I have been to the parts stores and have about 20 fittings at home but nothing that is right I would love to just cut them and put on new fittings, but it is VERY VERY VERY tight, so if I can just get parts to fit it would make my life easier....I need to attach 3/16 double flare fitting to these lines.....

The original lines are gone (yeah i know stupid) that went towards the front of the car.....


edit: this is for a 2002 Ford Mustang GT WITH abs and traction control (all of which have been removed)

wait....are the inside of the fitting different of just the threading.....are the inside flares different also????


And the 64,000.00 is since all the bolts on the car are metric, do the fittings stay SAE?


off topic....know what really sucks.....a metric bolted car, using old school parts that are SAE.....f'ng nightmare I hate having to have two different tools when working on the car!
