wheel cyl. fitting
Dave,
I figured this is what you had going on. I'm sure the new disk set up must be world of difference. I think you got very lucky that double flare worked. It probably would have leaked for me knowing my luck. I just went to the parts store and picked up a new 3/16" line with 2 European style 3/8-24 threaded nuts. Both ends are bubble flared. I just simply bought a long piece and cut it in half. Removed 1 of the European style nuts. Add a standard SAE double flare nut, flare the cut end to a double flare, bend to shape and problem solved! Basically just replicating the factory part. Beats buying an overpriced NOS part. Hopefully all goes well. Really want to get the car back on the road for the fall season. I know I'm in the minority here (or crazy), but I hope this helps anyone else that wants to keep their original 4 wheel drum set up.
Here is what I got. Part number is PAB-320
