    brake lines? 140-160

    Not sure of the thread size but I recently replaced the rear lines on my '72 and double flared with no problem.

    Did try a single flare (before I knew better) on a 544 and had leaks.

    I think all of them are 3/8"-24 UNF threads and to the best of my
    knowledge nearly all brake lines are double-flared.
