Roll Control Install Part 2
Must be having a "brain-fart" day. Trying to get fittings to install the roll control. Now I am doubting the thread size on the solenoid itself. I am trying to go from the master cylinder to the roll control. This requires stepping down from the 5/16" male flair fitting down to a "confusion here" 3/16" straight or is it a 1/4" NPT.? I have been to 3 auto supply & 1 hardware store, cannot find a 5/16" female to a 3/16" male end reducer. Have brought home a few odds & ends. Now I am not sure as to the actual thread size is for the solenoid fittings. I thought they were 3/16" but...

Not sure exactly what you have, but I'm thinking your roll control valve may have 1/8" NPT or 1/4" NPT (I would guess 1/8" tapered pipe thread) and you need a fitting that goes from that to inverted flare. I assume it goes to the front brakes which is 3/16" tubing. So you will need a 1/8" NPT to 3/8-24 inverted flare.
