Default F15A brake lines and hoses

I have recently made a full set of brake pipes for our F 15A. The parcel Contaning the brake Kits and Hoses was sent to the wrong adress (my home).
In 2 weeks I will have a week on the Blitz at Cootamindra. I intend to remove all the new pipes and fittings for cleaning, at the same time I will be making a second set for Tony Elliot's F60 which should be the same except for the pipe to the rear axle.
I will make notes and report here on my return.

Hello Mariano,

See the last picture in my posting above (and attached below here again) for dimensions.

Yes, they are the same for all Ford CMPs.

Mariano,

There is a company from Argentina on ebay which sell brands new hoses for many vintage vehicles: https://www.ebay.com/str/LNF-BRAKES

I think this set would fit an F15A: https://www.ebay.com/itm/FORD-TRUCK-...7/362626618238

This would solve your problem of not being able to buy from abroad at the moment.

Thank you Hanno for the Link. I found this manufacturer and send a question about the hoses.
Regards!
