There's different standards on what size bolt head you get with a given size threaded shank. F'rinstance, a Japanese M8 bolt will be a 12mm head, but a Euro (or usually US) DIN M8 bolt will be a 13mm

9/16 is usually too tight on a 14mm head but you will, at times, find 14mm fastener heads that were obviously sized to fit a 9/16 wrench, too. John. _______________________________________________ S

I use the 3/8in Tru-Flate type (probably overkill for most purposes) - they also have a letter code, F maybe? and I've got two or three different varieties of the push-connect fittings: http://www.m

There is hose and clamps intended specifically for high-pressure fuel injection applications, SAE 30R9 spec. It's quite pricey compared to the old low-pressure stuff. The hard line really needs to be

Are they steel pistons? Ford tried phenolic-resin pistons in several applications a while back, and they were notorious for coming apart in heavy use. But it would surprise me a LOT if Ford went down

Yeah, those are the phenolic pistons. What year was this truck? Are those the original calipers? Automakers will claim they use them to reduce heat transfer from the pad to the fluid, and this may be
