Subject:88 front & rear steel brake lines size
From:Caroline Cote

Hi,

Yesterday, I bought a Vanagon GL Full camper 88 in Quebec City - lovely blue with touch ups paint! But the brakes lines died during the CAA inspection before I bought it! It's ok, I've got the price reduced and now the van was safely towed to my uncle's garage (about 1h30 from my place)...

But I have a brake job to do and the long weekend looks appealing! I want to replace all brake lines front & rear, master cylinder, rear pads, drums and cylinders. Got all parts ordered from NAPA finally, except for the brake lines...

Since I do not have the van in my driveway and all my repair manuals are on their way... May I ask what size & length of steel brake lines do I need? 

I found that it might be "10mm x 1.0 pitch" from a thread on the samba (http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?p=4154085&highlight=brake+lines#4154085), but not sure it's not just for syncro and if it apply to both front & rear?? 

Thanks a lot,

Caroline
