Apologies for this being my first thread, I will add some pictures and introduce myself at a later date when I have some more time on my hands.

I have a pedal box and I am having difficulty sourcing some fittings for the reservoir. They are 7/16 unf. I'm in need of male and female fittings for braided lines. Any ideas of where to find them. The only fittings I have found so far are around £20 each which is far too much!

I need to connect the hose to the reservoir using a female fitting. Then on the other end a male fitting to connect it to the master cylinder.
I think that the hose size i will need is an-4

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Tom.

Might be worth going to your local hydraulics place and have them made up, they probably have the correct fittings.

Without knowing exactly what fittings you need, hard to say.

But £20 for any fitting does sound unrealistic.

Exactly what was the fitting that you seen for £20 ? Even Demon Tweeks wouldnt be that expensive for one brake type fitting.

speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will
