ok so the rebuild continues,

BUT

i had to stop the rear brake today (pardon the pun) lol

the hose looks like some fine pitch, and the bolt inwhich it mounts on the caliper looks like a coarse pitch,

there something missing from between these too? both hose, and caliper bolt have a internal concave shape, is there a bolt that converts the two threads and has an external concave that i maybe missing?

Image

image of said bolt to the right. ps i have goodridge braided hoses,

Thanks Rick

You haven't put the union in the wrong way round have you Rick? It might be worth taking out and checking because I don't think there is another adaptor to fit onto that union.
