[low1954]

I'm am looking for answers!!! I am trying to find out
The thread size of the fittings on my front brake hoses. I have
Found out that the side that bolts to the caliper is a 7/20 banjo bolt? Is that correct? However I can't find what type and size of the fitting that is on the frame side. My truck is a 1972 chevy k20. I am wanting to know this info
So I can make my own braided lines. I have the braided line, but need to order
The correct fittings. Any and all help would be awesome. Thanks Jeremy

My only suggestion (not much help, I know) is buy or borrow one from a parts store. I bought new ones at NAPA recently, perfect fit and not too expensive IIRC. At least you'll be able to see exactly what size/type fitting is used, as well as the threads.


Edit: checked online, found p/n UP 36761 with pics and a description including thread size.

It's a NAPA part number -- did you check with a NAPA store? Were you able to click on the link I posted? Here's what the link has about the threads on each end of the hose:
Hose End Type 1 : Banjo - 0.44
Hose End Type 2 : Male/female - 5/8"-18 Ext & 3/8"-24 Int

I don't recall the thread size on the frame end of my 72 K20 but i bought new hoses from Offroad Designs for my truck after i installed my 4" lift. This is the part number they sent me, if your still searching maybe a call to them would help id the thread size?
