The ISO/DIN or bubble flare in your link below and I have an M10 x 1 tap
, but it cuts an oversize thread - which is the whole problem here. The
vehicle in question is a Ford Mustang , late model 90-something , I think
. He's putting a different master cylinder on because he's using a rear axle
with disc brakes , and I'm also making an adapter plate to mount that .

All the parts for the disk brake conversion are available from Ford
and the aftermarket as that setup was used on the Ford Explorer. As
well as on the Mustang Cobra. Being a Ford it will be a standard
double flare - NOT a bubble flare - unless he is using brake parts
from a Euro Ford, perhaps.


Right. Bag o' worms, wot?

Mabee he's putting non-Ford brakes on it - like Jag?? Real easy to
fix that too. Put a flare adapter fitting on the Euro part and use SAE
double flare lines trhoughout. And BUY the proper part. You cannot
afford to make them at the price they sell for.

Just DO NOT screw around with brakes without knowing EXACTLY what you
are doing.
