Are all the unions male? Any idea how many I need?
Not fancying crawling under my car in this weather so if someone knows or has a nice warm garage and fancies a crawl under it would be much appreciated!
Marky, I know my tester well and he wouldn't fob me off so if he's not happy with the std steel ones I am sure they will be past it.
Got the bending a flaring tools to make brake lines just need an idea of how many unions and which type and how much pipe I will need. Is 25ft likely to be enough?

I got away with not having to do the front to back lines, but when I rebuilt the rear axle lines, the rear flexi hose to distributer line and one of the front caliper to distributer lines they were all male. I would hazard a guess you need about 10. They are cheap enough so maybe buy a couple of packs.
