Help needed for Wilwood disc brake upgrade

Have a 1972 C10 upgrading brakes to Wilwood. Fitting adapter needed from factory hardline to Wilwood flexline. Is there a fitting available for conversion? Thanks!

Re: Help needed for Wilwood disc brake upgrade

If your flex line is 3AN I just did a braided hose conversion on my '69 with '72 brakes. Of course you know that the drivers side hard line fitting is 7/16x24 and the passenger side is 3/8x24 thread even though the hard line tubing is the same. I used an Earls 3AN to 7/16 Summit pn EAR-989549ERL on the left side and a Wilwood Summit pn WIL-220-13124 3/8x3AN on the right side. Summit price was $6.64 and $8.26. These both fit the crossmember tabs and the clips fit them too.

Thank you for your responses. We haven't started the upgrade yet but wanted to make sure we have everything once we start.
