Power Brake Lines
For the stock 1200 power brakes, see Brake Booster.
Hard Lines
The hard lines are 3/16" outside diameter.
* 3/16" lines (4.75 mm) with M10 metric fittings * Cunifer lines on early 1200s for corrosion resistance * Later 1200 utes have poly-coated steel lines
Choices
- get pre-made lines of various lengths and bend and install it yourself
- get brake line material and fittings and cut it, flare it and fit it
- pay a shop to make and install custom lines
- buy genuine brake lines from Nissan and install. The ute parts are still available, and most will fit a Sedan or Coupe.
The first two are available at the usual spare auto parts stores, or mail order from hot rod stores.
Soft Lines
Brake hoses used by Datsun 1200:
* Rear soft hose to the rear axle * Front left soft hose to brake caliper * Front right soft hose to brake caliper
