Hoses for wilwood calipers? 1/8-27NPT Thread?

Sloan85 - 11/5/13 at 09:34 PM

What hoses do I need to fit to wilwood powerlite calipers? The hoses I have came with the mk kit so I assume are for sierra calipers. The thread on the wilwood calipers is 1/8-27npt. Do I need new hoses or is there and adapter?

Cheers

I switched from BMW calipers to Wilwoods without changing the hose size, which I think is -3. You might need to change the end fittings, obviously.

Talk to Rally Design - they supplied me some adaptors to go between the metric lines I had, and the NPT fittings of the Wilwoods.

I did actually speak to them on Friday. They said they have a1/8-27npt to male adapter and I would need to change the end of the hoses to female, which isn't as straight forward as I was hoping hence why I'm after other options.

Speak to russbost on here, he makes them or at least he was when I was building my indy, can highly recommend him!
