Brake hose
I have a 1965 chevy truck and recently bought two front flex hoses. I converted my front brakes to disc from a 1972 truck. The passenger side is 3/16” where the steel line goes in, and on the driver side it is a ¼” where the steel line goes in. I was hoping to get them both to be 3/16.
Has anyone had this problem and how did you accommodate as I don’t want to use adaptors. Can you help / advise? thanks, Angie |

Re: Brake hose
Are you referring to the steel line fittings (where the steel brake lines terminate) being different sizes? If so, check the steel lines to see how they are routed from the master cylinder. Some setups run a single line from master cylinder which then routes to a T fitting. Other setups may run dual lines from master cylinder. It's possible a previous owner adapted the wrong steel line size for one side by running an adapter from the T fitting or something similar. Photos of your setup (if possible) would be helpful.
