Brake Lines

[MarkCJ7UK]

I didn't install the 360 into my CJ but the guy who did has the NSF brake pipe trapped between the header and the chassis rail , ( I WASNT IMPRESSED ) I want to re route the line a little so need to make a new pipe ,, am I right in thinking the fittings are 3/8 on the pipe and the rubber hose to the calliper ?? dumb *** question I know but I wondered if someone might just confirm before I begin stripping it out

I think you are talking NPT pipe or National Pipe thread? Which that pipe size is measured on the inside diameter. For example a 1/8" pipe will have a 1/8"-27 fitting on it which is about 3/8" in outside diameter. Anyway would it be possible for you just to move it out of the way or do you need to extend its length?

)Hi and thanks for the figures , I would prefer to re route the pipe rather than just bend the old piece and risk a fracture , also I want to replace the old rubber hose with a braided hose to the caliper to match the off side hose (the builder fitted braided hose on one side and not the other ), with flat fenders its all open and on view and looks odd, thanks again
