Went to Boulder Hose to see about new SS lines since my backing plate is now gone.

I need to know if fitting A in the picture is the same as fitting B.

A is 10mmX1.0.

If B is also 10mmX1.0 wouldn't I be able to use the extended lines I got from Man-A-Fee. Just plug them directly into the caliper?

it seems to me that you would- I'd jack up both corners and cycle the steering as far as it can both ways, if there's no conflict and it's long enough each way I think you can. does Man-A-Fre have anything to say about it?

George from Valley Hybrids is going to hook me up with some custom lines for about $10 cheaper per line than Boulder hose. Plus these will have jackets around the SS portion.

The MAF lines wouldn't be long enough so I'm getting 12" lines made.
