an to 48 ford

so I know I'm not the frirst guy to need to run stainless hoses to a 48 ford wheel cylender. The problem is all the hose ends I've found are too short on the 7/16ths side of the end and won't seat on the inverted flare in the wheel cylender. Does anyone know of a -4 an to 7/16 ifm end that is atleast 3/4 inch long

 

any one on the day shift?

 

not even a smart ass comment?

 

i'm not sure why the threads need to be 3/4" long. are you talking about rear wheel cylinders? on the `40 ford front brakes on my current project i got the adapters from 7/16-20 to 3AN from Pure Choice Motorsports

 

it is the fronts and the shorter ones won't seat int the wheel cylender

 

Hmmm...
I just looked at my cylinders...mine don't seem to be bored that deep for the fitting.
Are they rebuilt or new? Maybe re-bored to clean up the seat?

 

I go them from joblot probly reaman'd

 

I did a quick search from a few sources, and didn't turn up anything any longer than standard (which is maybe 1/2,if that, going off memory). I'd try a local hydraulic supplier, if you have one. It may even be possible to use a banjo-style fitting, as I'm pretty sure you could get a bajo bolt long enough. I'm not familiar enough with your particular wheel cylinder to say for sure, though.

 

the front wheel cylinders shouldn't have the seat for the inverted flare , just the threaded bore of 7/16-20. a copper crush washer is used to seal
