I can't find where to purchase these. Does anyone know where to find one? It's for a '54 1 Ton.

The lines running to the front and rear from the master cylinder are usually 1/4" OD tubing, and the inverted flare T fittings at the front crossmember and the rear end housing will probably have one 1/4" inverted flare socket and two 3/16" tube sockets. It's possible the master cylinder will have two banjo fittings stacked together with a copper seal washer between them, with a long banjo bolt holding them to the master cylinder outlet port.

I haven't really been able to find this piece I need and I want to see if this was changed over time. I would think, since it is connected to the master cylinder it would be a piece that most people would carry. Chevs of the 40's has something similar, just smaller than I need. I just can't find this anywhere. https://www.chevsofthe40s.com/detai...Junction_Block_Left_Front_At_Master.html
