I know someone local that can make me replacement extended brake lines (company that makes industrial hydraulic hoses,etc).
My question is, does anyone know what fittings I need to have them put on each end of the hoses?

I would like to be able to tell them instead of taking my lines to them to match the ends. My plan is to replace all 4 line with 3" extended lines. And yes, I know that you can get kits with pre-made lines from several vendors, but the one I will have made are way cheaper than those kits, and just as good of quality.
I figured that several people on here know the exact fittings needed on both ends.

10mm banjo at the caliper

10x1.0 (99% sure it is 1.0) bubble flare female at the hard pipe end.


you can also be cheaper and swap the front lines to the rear as the fronts are longer.

Thank you. Are all 4 corners the same fittings?

This is perfect, I have been hunting for this info for a while as we can make them at my work as well but no one has listings for the fittings used on DII flex lines.

Anyone know what the stock length on the flex lines is? I left my Rover at home today and wanted to build them while I was here at work today so I can put them in tonight.

Thanks.

Just out of curiosity, could you make them for other people? How much would they cost? Are you using rubber line, or braided stainless. rubber ones, 3" longer than stock is what I wanted.
The shop I was going to use said that they wont have the banjo fittings for a while.

I am sure I can make a set up for you here, not sure of the cost, still need to get under my truck tonight and check the banjo style as well as the correct OAL. I'll let you know when I have mine made up.
