brake line size?

[bill64]

curious as to the size of the lines that come out of the master cyl...standard or metric and what type of flare is used? I want to make a couple block off tubes to diagnose my low brake pedal. I have a few I made years ago with the standard sizes but not sure if they will work on the marauder. I plan to flush out/bleed the brake system anyhow, but I want to make sure I have the right block off tubes if I still have a low pedal afterwords to help diagnose if the problem is the master cyl. I bought this car with a low brake pedal...just getting around to it:banana:

It would also be a good time to replace the rubber brake lines that start at the hard line to the caiper with braided stainless lines ..TCE brakes, a vendor here has them. They help with the soft brake pedal feel since they do not bulge when the brakes are applied firmly.

I was actually thinking about that!

That would absolutely fix the problem!

thanks!:beer: I just measured the lines coming off the master cyl. and the closet measurements match up to 3/16 and 1/4 in. Now to find the flare style...if needed, I can allways flare up some tubing when and if I need to do more diagnostics after bleeding...we will see
