Hardware for ABS Delete
Hardware for ABS Delete I'm deleting my 4 channel ABS.
I'm going to cut and flare stock lines to some tees.
What size are the brake lines.
What size tees and fittings do I need.
Also a good proportioning valve.
Already have a line lock.
Thanks fellows.

I believe the stock lines are metric but a 3/16 nut will fit on the line and you can also flare the line with a 3/16 flare. Just buy a couple of 3/16 tees and a couple of 3/16 nuts because this is what comes in the SJM kit. Wilwood makes a good proportioning valve. Make sure you use a good flare tool because I found the stock lines are hard to flare using a cheap tool.
Thanks, I thought I was told that the front lines were 1/4" and the backs were 3/16".
I research this about a year ago, and can't remember. Hell, I barely remember yesterday!

yup I did what jon said.
used the stock master, just got the adapter fittings right off that. The front is m10? and the rear is m11, or there a m12? But get then with a normal 3/16th seat, so you can make normal lines off them.

Yeah, I looked at your thread. I like the way you did yours.
Did you ever get you stripped out wiring harness on?

Grab a summit prop valve if you want one, it has a summit sticker over the wilwood one.
Napa will have any fittings or T's you need. Get 3/16's stuff for inverted flares. If you redo the master, save the fittings if you can as they are different. I think they might be a bubble flare too but I could be mistaking.

Where did you find the adapter fitting for the rear line, coming off the master cylinder?
I have the front line fitting, as it came with the SLP line lock, I put on years ago.
I don't think I was able to find the fitting so in a bind I used a piece of 1/4 line with the stock fitting to go from the master cylinder to the proportioning valve. I know that they make the fitting but you might need to do some digging. Sorry, it has been so long since I had that kit and since I used the stock master cylinder. I'd try auto zone because they have some metric conversion fittings. Also, I'd try Summit as a last resort if you don't mind waiting.

the PP valve has NPT, I put fitting in that with 3/16 double flair, same you use for new ends on the stock line(s)
off the rear MS line I think I did use a SLP LL lit upper line. That had the metric fitting on it already.
ya I remember now, When I was doing this, I found 2 used SLP LL kits at newera they were missing parts, and both returned a mail order sale. They had threaded the lines right in the LL without the fittings, and messed the treads up
I had to re tap the bottom of one of the SLP LL a little deeper but it cleaned up. I think the other end of the line was missed up, and a cut it back shorter to were I put the LL and re fitting and flared it for 3/16ths.
