Brake Line/Fitting Size
I broke one of the old brake lines from the master cylinder to the brake valve. Figured I would just replace both of them while I'm at it. I am away from the truck (76 f150 302) and realized that I don't know what size the lines and fittings are. I seem to remember one end being larger that the other. Anyone knw what size these are to help me avoid an additional trip back to town?

the lines are 3/16. the fittings are the problem. usually 1 is a standard line. the other has 1/4 size tube nuts on one end and one that has to be matched on the other. the best thing to do is take it in to match up. go to a napa they have adaptor lines about 8 inches long. they have the correct sizes on them. i just did the same on my truck.
