Looks like you answered your own question or did you realy have another question?

im guessing the thing going from the master cylinder would be the brake line and the rectangular thing would be the proportioning valve..and i think he did answer his own question

 

[1982 bronco lifter]

i was wondering the thread size and length too

 

[Yardape]

Oh you mean the bolt size /

It is the proportioning valve you are refering to is it not?

 

[Yardape]

Which thread size are you looking for? The flare nuts for the brake lines or the bolts that hold it in place. The more clear you are the easier it is to answer a question.

the flare nut for 3/16 line and yes it is the proportioning valve

 

[Yardape]

I think its 3/8-24. I looked for a prop. valve in my LMC Truck catalog and they list one but says its inlet and outlet ports have a 1/8-27 NPT thread. That doesnt sound right to me, sounds pretty small. I am thinking its a typo and that its 3/8-24

do you know where i could get one of the nuts i have tryed autozone and they dont have any i asked if they know of anybody that had one the of course being a bunch of kids that work there had no idea what a proportioning valve was but they had no idea where one was any help would be very very helpful

Try LMC Truck or Jeffs Broncograveyard

Try NAPA for the fitting and dont forget that the line has to be double flaired . /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
