I have brake fluid spurting from one of the solid brake lines under the hood. It appears to be one of three lines running from the ABS pump out to the brakes. Looks like all three lines go to mounting blocks mounted near the driver's side suspension.

Web search seems to show factory parts are NLA, so my choices are to 1) make my own line or 2) buy a pre-made line (with fittings) that is approximately the same length as the original. I'm leaning toward #2 as I don't have flaring tools or skills but I have done some.

Does this sound right? Can anyone tell me the nominal brake line size? I can't find a diagram showing the brake line routings and fittings.

adTHANKSvance,
