Need help locating 90 degree brake fittings
My car has Girling rear calipers, and like most British brake components they accept lines that have bubble flares. My calipers have the lines entering the calipers on the top of the caliper, vertical to the ground. This will be too hard to describe without pictures, but because of interference with the emergency brake lines and caliper arms, I need to install 90 degree elbow fittings so that the brake line enters the front of the caliper and not the top. I can't do this with a simple bend in the line, because I can't bend the line tight enough to the nut for proper clearance, it has to be a elbow. The bend has to be immediate and very tight to the caliper itself. The question is, where do I find a 90 degree elbow that will screw into the Girling caliper and have the proper bubble flare end on it?
