Others sell them but mine were from Speedway.......
Yes...they come tapped with 1/8" npt threads. Hence a 1/8npt to 3/8 24 IFF is used. Also I haven't checked for leaks...just getting it all...
Thanks... Its for these 1/8" NPT fittings that come on the through frame adapters. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Ive read a bunch of threads recommending it for NPT FITTINGS. DOES IT CURE HARD LIKE THREAD LOCKER? AND FITTINGS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO GET APART?
You used AN3 ? which is the equivalent of 3/16? The largest 1/8" NPT to IFF adapter I can find is 1/4" line. It doesn't seem like much benefit...

One more question... Got the bearings honed so the slip on. When you use the setup bearings, do you install the new races, or use the old ones?...
