Front caliper 74 270 M400
Got the Cardone 18-4271 and 4272 rebuilt units. The tube connection on the new units is a copper flat washer hydraulic seal where the old caliper was a beveled washer hydraulic seal. Can anyone tell me if there is a conversion to mount one to the other? Or are the hoses listed in DavesCheiftain site compatible with the flat washer seal on the cardone replacement calipers?

Re: Front caliper 74 270 M400
Answered my own question with a little more digging into the specifications on the Cardone 18-4271&72 calipers. The newer calipers match the new hose numbers Dave's site. The caliper/hose interface on both is the 7/16th-20 using the copper washer. Hoses are proving to be a rare commodity right now. But, local NAPA is supposed to deliver the 21" units by the end of the week. The 15" may be available a few days earlier.
