WD21 Brake Line

[HayesWD21]

Ok, rear wheel cylinders are leaking, so time to change them no big deal. HOWEVER the brake line and fitting looks like they're married to the old wheel cylinder so my money is on having to replace the line from the junction block to the wheel cylinder. What size line/fittings are on these guys? I'm just going to bite the bullet and pick this stuff up before I twist the old line off and have to walk to the parts store across town lol.

is this rigid line or flex?

Not entire sure the WD21 setup, but since you mentioned wheel cylinder, you're talking about drums...and I didn't there was a flex line on that.

 

But, the fitting should be M10x1.0 regardless.

Yes, rear drums on this old girl. Rigid line supplies the wheel cylinder . M10X1.0 is a good start, thanks! just need to know the tube diameter and I'm golden.

3/16". You should be able to get bendable lines from your local auto parts store with fittings installed and already flared. That's what I did last week, anyway (and I already have a few parts from other Nissans on my truck to know they share fittings).

 

These are what I used: http://www.autozone.com/brakes-and-traction-control/brake-tubing?filterByKeyWord=pajx

Just be mindful that some may have "bubble" flares. You want the "standard" or "inverted" flare.

Thank you!!

Since you are in Canada, I will tell you, Canadian tire or partsource will have what you need. Shouldn't cost more than 20-30 dollars with fluid.
