standard double flare with M10 x1 brake line female nuts to attach a 3 1/6" brake line to the jag XJ6 hose. I get the nuts from the jag donor, but I did find one place selling them online.

M10x1 brake nut, female - Brake Pipes (Copper) & Fittings - Brakes - Parts by Category



In this picture you can see the male end of the jag hose where the line will hook up, I did the same on my F1s.

Joe,
The parts you listed look to be unions, so they should be threaded on both ends with the M10x1 thread, correct? The part I listed is the actual female nut needed to attach a brake line directly to the jag hose which is threaded on one side only (bad picture of the part ) Or if you could find a union with M10x1 on one side and a thread to accept a 3/16" brake line nut you could use that, but I don't like using adapters unless there is no other way.


EDIT found a dorman adapter, M10 x 1 to 3/16 PN 43512

Yes they are threaded on both ends. I can't tell from the pics, but I am assuming that Dorman part is threaded on one end only.

The dorman part should be M10 x 1 on one end and straight 3/16" brake line thread on the other.

Well that would make it the same as the one's I posted then. 3/16" brake line fittings are 3/8-24

Good enough, then any of them will work if you want to use an adapter.

'Brake lines

Thanks for a point in a direction
In so California we have a lot of options as far as auto part stores but as soon as they ask you what year of car it's all down hill from there
