If no one knows right off....

I'm not sure but it is like a 3/8 to 1/4. You have the caliper flex lines, right? Take them to the parts store and just find out the size of the inlet to the drivers side line, that is the same size as the Fox passenger side hard line. Then find the fitting that matches the passenger side hose. My auto parts store has a set of fittings for sizing your parts to see what you need to get. You can check with your local place to see if they have the test fittings and then determine the adapter from that. I did this to find out the fitting for my Mark VII rear center flex line to the Fox rear center hardline on the car.

Good luck!

Thomas

Thomas as always you save my arse lol

Yeah I have the new Softlines,
Ok so lemme get this right before I do this,

The INLET to the Drivers side SN95 Line is the same size as the OUTLET on the Passnger side FOX Hardline?

So I need an adapter for the bigger Fox Hardline (say its 3/8 for arguments sake) to fit the smaller INLET on the passenger side SN95 Softline (again say 1/4)

So I would need a 3/8 to 1/4 assuming that was the size,
Right or did I miss the point?

You are correct. The Fox fittings are the same size on both sides. I almost put the passenger side SN95 caliper on my drivers side until I noticed the SN95 hose that came with it had a smaller inlet. Also, you might be able to find some banjo bolts and crush washers at the parts place. I know mine has a few of them. My calipers came with the hoses attached, so I didn't have to bother with it. Take a caliper also just in case they have them.
