Default 1979-81 Firebird rear disk brake caliper fittings
Any chance of getting a repro of the 1979-81 Firebird rear disk brake caliper fittings? The ones that go between the hard brake line and the caliper. They're just machined brass, but since nobody makes them, you can't buy seem to buy them without buying a whole rear end.

Maybe not high volume, but I bet one of your suppliers like Inline Tube or Fine Lines or Right Stuff could CNC up a bunch of them from a sample. I'd pay $35-$50 for a set.

I believe I have an original set in the garage. I converted mine to rubber lines. Kind of like the ones in the front. Alot easier to work with. If you really need them, let me know. Ill look for them...

Absolutely, if you have a set, I'm interested. Please let me know if you can find them. I'd be much obliged.

I was just thinking about doing that myself tonight as I removed the left caliper. Wouldn't have to open it up if a flex hose were on it. What'd you use for a rubber hose?
