Where to find inverted flare brake adapter for M115A1 slantback

[Austin T]

I have been to all the auto & hardware stores looking for this adapter fitting. It connects between the rear caliper and the brake line. Without it, the brake line moves in and out and leaks. Any help on a part # or where to source would be appreciated. Thanks

Not sure why you would need another thread, all you need is to look at the parts TM
It looks like you need #17, (EDIT and #16) although the parts diagram seems to show a rubber hose going to the caliper, hopefully someone can clarify.

Google 12339235, they are everywhere, HPG has the 5582366 although that (TM) does not look right, I think the washer goes between the adapter and the caliper.

Napa, real parts store with grey hair counterman, or hydraulic shop.

And if you can find a real counter man the old gray bearded guy - like @juanprado suggested - take off the other back caliper fitting and take it with you. That way they can have something to match to.

Lol I tried Napa grey hair man. He looked and had one similar but not the right size.

Thanks! I didn't know little parts like that would be listed anywhere. I downloaded the TM.

Do you mean double flare?

It has straight male threads, why it needs a copper washer.

Because a lot of military and aircraft tubing is double flare

 

[juanprado]

All automotive and vehichle brake lines have to be double flare by law.

Why is your tape measure out to 11'-1" to measure a 7/8" fitting ?

This had me rolling!

Because the first 10' have been used extensively and isn't as legible.

It's apparently a crush washer that goes between the caliper and the adapter. Good eye!
