Good day,

I have scoured the web looking for a source for the metric nuts that go from the hard line to the rubber lines on my Series 2a build and I can't seem to come up with any leads. Does any one have anything they have used or an adapter they have built that gets this acomplished? Or is there a source for these nuts I have missed? Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you

I haven't seen the fittings sold separately, either.  They usually come with the pipes. 

Are you referring to these flex lines?

I get most of my brake parts from this site - decent prices, but check the delivery rate... it may be worth your while (and safer) to buy new hard lines while you're at it.

Yes, those line have metric threads and need those goofy threaded nuts.
Thank you for the link, i'll scoure the site. You may be correct though. I may be buying a line kit.

Yes! those are the ones.
The original piping was corroded very bad and I just kept wrecking the fittings trying to free them up.
Thank you for the link!
