Alright gang,

I need to find out or know how to work out if my master cylinder thread for the hose and brake lines are 3/8 - 24 or m10?

Can anyone shed a light on this please,

Cheers kieran

No idea and I don't know how you'd find out.

Only ones I've got to check on as early and with ABS, I'll whip them off if you think they'll be the same.

The reason I need to find out sizes is so I know what to order when getting braided lines and all new fittings.

Don't really wanna buy all the wrong ones lol.

Normal M10 is 1.25, so it will be too course. It needs to have a 1mm pitch.
