Hi,
3/16 I believe the flare is Double flare.

Very wild guess. I replaced the bearings in my 2003, and was looking in my tool box. I came across a 1 1/4" socket that I purchased around the same time, but I realize that it should be the metric equivalent of this, so it probably did not fit perfectly. Metric conversion would be 31.75 mm.

they are 5/16 lines
I just did the rear traveling brake line on my 2001 ford EXP. I would like to add some helpful comments. 1. if the line is bad.. snip it near the base of the junction and then put a socket on it. so much easier than buying a line wrench for a line you dont intend to keep.
also I re routed my line as i left the rear left side and re piped it back to the front. I avoided the gas tank area. I was able to use two five foot lines and one union to reach the antilock mechanism/ hub.
notes:
1. on the brake line there is a short thread and long three. the long thread is needed to go into the small "hub" at the back of the truck.
2. i put both short thread ends of the new brake lines toward each other and fitted the union last.
** pick this up while picking up the brake lines you need
3. you will need a converter form the 3/16ths thread size to the larger 1/4 threads as you re thread back into the anti lock terminal.
***************** HELPFUL HINT **************************
on the five foot section i routed on the back half of the truck.. i slipped an old piece of garden hose over it to keep it from chaffing/ rubbing.
One site i saw recommended using a 5 foot and 6 foot peice to do this job and another 5 foot piece to bridge across the rear from left rear to right rear. I will cross that bridge when i come to it, hehe..
buy the 5 dollar line bender and a really good snips.
cheers

The steel brake lines can cost from 10 to 50 dollars each, depending on where you buy them.
These are "universal", means they fit all cars, but depend on the diameter.
The rubber flex hoses can cost from $ 15 - 75 each, same criteria as above.
Then, the labor cost can run from $ 40 to $ 300 or more, again depending on where you go.
God bless your efforts.

Its cheaper if u buy lines and do it yourself honestly. But you will also need brake fluid and a friend to help you bleed all brake lines
