Making braided brake lines... Where to buy fittings?
yellowcab - 13/4/13 at 05:52 PM

So I've bought the JIC -3 PTFE lined braided brake hose itself.

I now need:

-3 to 1/8 bsp female (straight) x2 - Wilwood caliper fronts
-3 to 1/8 bsp male (straight) x4 - inboard 2 fronts and 2 rears
-3 to banjo (straight) x2 - to go to rear Sierra calipers
1/8 bsp banjo bolts x2 - to go through above banjos into Sierra calipers at rear


Where is the best place to get what I need from?

I got all mine from Rally Design. I recall that they had a wide range of fittings!

Torques on ebay are very good aswell to be honest. Ive used them before for oil lines, brake lines and fuel lines.

I got a load from rally design, phone them to order though, rather than do it online, postage should be a lot cheaper.

However, contact russbost on here, get some made up, properly swaged, not screwed together. Top value too

Another vote for russbost, Ordered a set, the next day they were on the car, job done, His prices mean its not worth bothering trying to make your own.
