91 master cyl fitting size?

Anyone know the siE of the two fittings on a stock 91 master cyl? Front brake lines have a large one and rear one has a smaller fitting. Both 3/16 line i believe.
Need a new front fitting.

go to napa with the old fitting. they will either have a reducer to make the 3/16 line fitting work, or have the proper fitting to put on the line and then do a double flair on it

ended up being able to resuse that fitting.
Anyone know the fitting that goes form the hardline to the flex hose in the shock tower??

Mine are so rusted you can even see there is a fitting anywhere in that mess. Went all new just need those two fittings now.

the 3/16 line fitting should just thread into the soft line.

How do you connect a hardline to a softline? There is a fitting-a male (being the fitting on the hardline) and female(female being a part of the flex hose assemvly) which join the two.
Nvm i have a bunch of these male fittings i just found,but i dont know the exact size.
Would be nice to know the size for future reference.

the soft line is crimped to the brass fitting that the hard line screws into.

when you buy the soft line it comes as one piece. you can not replace just the brass fitting.

...i understand that.
the soft line has a brass fitting INTO WHICH the hardline fitting screws into.

in this picture the flexline is on the left side. Has the crimped brass coupler. the metal brake line. threads into this using a standard double inverted fitting.
What is the size of the fitting on the ford truck?
(the fitting immediately to the right of part labeled "female adapter fitting"

that is an example picture, not the real thing.
what i am trying to say is there is no "female adapter fitting" on our trucks.
the soft line has a crimped on fitting that goes through the mounting bracket that the horseshoe clip clips into, and then the hard line screws directly into it.

here is a picture of a set of rough country extended lines for a lift kit that shows the fittings on both ends.
Extended Front Brake Lines for 80-96 Ford F-150 Pickup, Bronco [89310] | Rough Country Suspension Systems

these lines are for the 80-96 F-150, but they are the same as the F-250 and F-350 lines

The receiving end is brass, I believe you want to know the end that is on the steel line going to it, which I seem to recall at the normal 3/8" pipe fitting. The larger fittings are 7/16". I happened to accidentally grab the larger fitting for a standard repair...
