I replaced my left rear caliper on my 95 GLT. I got the caliper from FCP and bought a straight brake line from a local parts store for about $6. It had American threads, not metric. Take the new caliper to the store to be sure the threads fit. I used a tool to bend the new brake line. The parts store will have the tool for about $10. The bends in the new brake line were not an exact match, but you will see that the brake line has enough play so that it can move with the suspension. Let your wife drive the car first to make sure you did the job right. Take your time and good luck.
