    Anyone have a source for the hollow bolt that holds the rear brake line junction block to the rearend housings left axle tube? I need one for my '70 Pro Stock project and another for my '37 Ford Sedan build that uses a Maverick rearend.

    Need 2 of the vent/bolts and any washers that are needed.

    Thanks,
    SPark

    Do you know if these are the 7/16" or 9/16" bolt size?

    Thought it looked small. Mine takes the 9/16 NF bolt.

    Thanks,

    OK, The one from Melvins does have the 7/16 thread. After looking at the pic again, it has 9/16 of thread and it's 7/16 diameter. Won't work for me. Guess I'll make my own!

    Thanks,

    ran into the same problem a while back - the 9/16 unf is an odd size which is not reproduced.
    i thought the bolt was unique to the 8" 4lug rear, but i don't have any others to compare to. i got mine through the wanted section on here!
