Brake Pipe Size?
nnrouty - 9/9/10 at 11:02 AM

Hi all

using standard sierra braking system on my project, cant anyone tell me what size pipe will be suitable for this setup?

Also, which sierra's used vented discs on back?

brake lines are a standard size from motor factors, its 3/16" irc.

discs on the back came with optional abs models, and were mostly fitted to 2.0l pinto or i guess dohc engined cars. ur common all garden LX models had drums

P.S search feature will prolly tell you all this

i think also there was some diffrence between the disc carriers for vented and solid rear discs although i could be wrong.
