  1. The lines are 1/4" I think (been a while since I've done one) but the fittings are a different size. You have a couple of options. They sell at NAPA and such an adapter with the right size fitting on a 6" line with a standard size fitting on the other end. Then you can use a regular union and attach it to a regular length of tubing. or due it the way I do buy a bunch of line (however many feet to go where it needs to). Snip off each line at the ABS module. use a 14mm 6pt. deep socket and remove the fitting. clean up any rough edges on the line and drive it out using a punch, check the fitting for cracks and reuse it if it's good. Then work back from the abs module to your termination points (calipers,master cylinder etc.). I recommend the second way for several reasons. The main one is the abs module is aluminum and the fittings are steel. If you try to use a regular wrench or line wrench you will probably strip the fittings. waste a ton of time and not get the fittings out. This will ruin your day and probably several more.If you cut the lines short at the abs,use a 6 point deep socket and ratchet you can get right in there with enough leverage and they will break free (fairly easy).The fittings can sometimes be VERY hard to break loose. Just so you know. don't be discouraged but you may need to use substantial elbow grease to get the lines to break free.Just take your time and plan each line from the abs to the caliper. Get a double flare tool for doing brake lines,a cheap tubing cutter and have it. bleed everything and check for leaks. also get yourself a gallon of brake fluid it's cheaper and you'll need at least 2 qts. try to do as long of runs as you can. less joints = less chances for leaks. I've done all the lines in trucks in under 3 hours. don't expect that your first time out. But allowing 3 days is more than enough time to do a nice job a account for any setbacks. Good Luck!
