REFLECTOR: Brake Lines

[nmflyer1 at aol.com]

Dave, 

?

I just measured the stuff I have. The factory "H" is .043 thick (ID is .096). The factory brass inserts fit this stuff perfectly. 

?

The "T" stuff is .025 thick (ID is .138).? The inserts don't fit this. 

?

My guess is that if you buy the "T" type and the fittings from spruce, that you will have a match, but much thinner material.

If you know the difference between the wall thickness of the "H" and "T" 
type I could probably figure out which mine was.? I could measure it 
with a caliper.? I have about three feet of it that I pulled out and 
replaced with the Teflon core SS braid stuff.? My guess is that it is 
the thicker walled stuff.
