    Brake line adapters

    Ok, I've been searching all over for m10x1 to 3/16 brake line adapters and can't find the correct ones. Where's everyone getting theirs from?

    I went to the local car parts store. Advance, in my case. Maybe I lucked out, found it at the first stop. Here's a pic of the pack.

    Did FFR not provide enough? I haven't done my rears yet so I haven't counted.
    A well stocked beverage fridge is the key to any successful project.

    Thanks for the help. None of my auto parts stores here carry them with the inverted flare and I've had trouble finding them online. FFR did not provide any Metric to Standard adapters.

    I got adapters from FFR, I swapped the adapter for removing the std fitting and going to a metric end on the brake master for clearance

    Oops, ok, I was showing not adapters, but replacement metric fittings to use with the 3/16" brake lines. Meaning, cut off and toss the standard, supplied fitting, replace with metric fitting and reflare. I'm using ABS, so I was already going to need additional fittings and with plenty of flaring to do. More adapters might be harder to source. FFR will provide them if they forgot them. Take stock and tell them what's missing and they'll ship it to you right away or as it becomes available (if backordered). I hope that helps. Ill keep an eye out for more adapters.

    How many do you need? I may be able to find a couple laying around as I didn't use them all. I just don't honestly remember where I put them, lol.
