Default Re: Replacing hydraulic brake lines

The flex lines can be Ford as well as all the fittings. It's not all that difficult to learn the double flaring tool and use the fittings that fit the Ford components. Ford ran them down the radius rods with a Y splitter at the front and a flex line to the frame. All the banjo rear ends were done that way beginning in 39. The front just needs a cross over manifold from the left to the right on left hand drive cars. Ford used a drilled hole in a member or a bolt on bracket and a standard anchor clip to hold the ends where the flex lines connect. A lot of folks use the copper-nickel tubing these days. It's easy to work with. Adel clamps can hold that stuff to the structure.
