Correct fittings?
Saturday, July 29, 2006 3:43 PM
I only need front SS lines since I'm doing the rear Neon swap.
I have not been able to locate a thread that says the correct front brake fitting sizes for sure.
To my understanding, is this correct??

Side 1: -3 AN fitting
Side 2: 10mm/3/8 banjo fitting

Now is an adapter needed for one of these ends? I saw posts talking about adapters but I did not figure out which side needs one.

Also, would 14" be too long or is 13" a better size?
Thanks for the help.

i suggest (this is what i did), and can be found on summit (i bought all earls stuff)

10mm banjos
14" lines (-3an)
and M10x1 bubble flare adapters.

you'll also need some 10mm crush washers which can be found at Advance or also on summit.

The M10x1 bubble flare adapters are confusing me. I haven't found them yet on the website.
I found both Earl's and Russel lines with one side -3 AN and the other 10mm/ 3/8 banjo fittings. So I still need an adapter with the 10mm banjo on there?
I guess I'm a bit confused.

The bubble flare adapter converts the -3AN fitting on the end of the braided hose to the M10 bubble at the end of the factory hard bent line. You can't directly connect a -3AN fitting to any factory fitting, since the car has none on it.
