Default Brake line question

Re-plumbing my rear brakes in the truggy I ran into a small issue...... What size is the one on the right??? The line is the same size but the nut is bigger than the M10x1.0 that they used for the rest of the system... What a pain in the ***!! I'm thinkin I am going to have to special order an adapter piece now

If you're removing the ABS just cut it off and install an M10x1.

I'm not removing ABS at this time although I probably should have. - you responded to this post over on Dweb too - I'm gonna go pick up the adapter piece now..

For future reference it is M12x1.0 and I just bought an adapter at Autozone instead of reflaring the tube..

I trust you double checked to make sure it was for ISO bubble flare and not metric inverted flare.

I figured you had, but I was only seeing inverted flare on the Autozone site. Then again I wasn't looking for a long time. Plus I was looking for a coupler rather than an adapter. I wasn't sure exactly what you were doing.
Good to know they have them.
