I could use some help finding a fitting.

I'm looking for an M10x1 inverted flare union, with a 1/8npt female port.

Let me know if any of you find anything.

I'll try them

I'd also like to not piece a bunch of adapters together, because brake system.

I may end up having to do a 1/8th npt tee, with 2 metric adapters.

I would encourage you to give them a call rather than rely on the website. They have A LOT of metric/euro stuff in inventory that is not on the site.

Can't you just whip one up on a lathe?

Maybe. I feel like I would struggle with the inverted flare.

males arent too bad.

females require a forming tool


and possibly a bottoming tap with a hole frilled in the end.

I concur. Females require a forming tool, and a bottoming tap really seals the deal. Otherwise they can still fail to be satisfied.

I have the double flaring tool I'll sell you for uber cheap. I think I bought it for $50 way back when I installed my proportioning valve.

I'm borrowing PREs shop tools with Ben for this project. But I might take you up on that.

Also, got the MR short shifter installed.

Been pondering motor mounts for a while. Want something simple that will move between cars and motors. Didn't like how the AWR was engine specific.

Came up with this highly technical drawing. Not sure how its gonna work but i wanna do some measuring and play with it

Can anyone confirm if the 99-00 and 01+ ABS brackets are the same?

Thanks to curly I now am getting the 01+ ABS pump. Which will save me some time and pain in locating the 99-00 computer.

99-00 computer/pump is for sale if anyone wants em. I have some extra sensors too that came with the spindles.

That truly sucks. How the hell did you manage that?
