Correction as I notice the cylinders shown appear to be double ended, they =
would probably be used on the rear brakes and the =93inee=94 and =93outee=
=94 ports would be the supply ports for the solid tubes from the three way =
fitting on the axle housing. Both of the other ports would be bleeders.

Do you mean "wheel" cylinders and not "slave"...100s have a mechanical clut=
ch. I understand that on all model Healeys the brake hoses have one threade=
d end and one flared end. That flare goes into the metal line nut.
On the early 100 wheel cylinders they used an American AF thread but switch=
ed over to the Girling unified thread on later releases. The bleeder connec=
tion can be either in or out in shape (photo) but if the bleed screw is fla=
t it uses the check ball (supplied in rebuild kits) and fits the recessed s=
hape. The pointed bleeder uses no check ball. Be sure that you were suppli=
ed the correct threaded hose...most suppliers do not have the early style. =
Use Girling red grease on the threads. Hank

I will be assisting a friend to replace the flexible hoses on his 100 front=
brakes. He has ordered and received a set of hoses, but the ends that thre=
ad into the slave Cyl do not match the shape of the mating surface in the s=
lave. The ends of the hoses are flat & it is my understanding that the cyl.=
is cone shaped inside. The vender says this is not a problem. I think it i=
s a problem.
What do you say?
Also, if it is an issue, where can we get a set of flex hoses that have the=
correct ends for this application & are also the correct length (I.E. Not =
too short)?
