1.25 rotors need brake lines part numbers
 
I've got a 1986 Chevy C10 I just upgraded the brakes and rotors to the 1.25. I was told that I need to upgrade the brake lines also to fit the 1.25. Does anyone have any part numbers or brands. Thanks in advance.

The brake lines have nothing to do with the rotors.
You do have to switch calipers.
The bearings, spindles, calipers and rotors are all specific the rotor width.
1” or 1-1/4”

I have the upgraded Calipers, So I should be able to run my factory brake lines to the Calipers?

Try the NAPA website. I was able to research an offbeat project using it. Actually, was able to determine that a conversion wasn't feasible in my case. Took me a little while to figure out how to use their format, but the info is pretty much there.

Assuming the 1986 is the same as my 1978..........not sure these aren't the brake lines for the 1.25 and the smaller ones.

I bought Wilwood calipers and the line fittings were a different size. Had to get Wilwood lines. See if your original lines fit. Mine didn't. New calipers could be SAE or metric. Find out what matches your new calipers. Measure and compare.
