Default 2001 E150 rear brake line left side fitting size?

Rear line between junction and left wheel cylinder. What size fitting goes into the junction. I know it's not 3/8-24 double flare.

There is a very good chance it is Metric and your nearby auto supply store probably has a section of that size already made. If you can take the old line and have them see it and they should be able to come up with a close correct replacement.

Hanky. I know the side going into the wheel cylinder is 3/8-24 and side going into junction is not. Most auto stores dont have mixed size fitting on lines that are 20 inch long

I would first confirm the proper size nut to fit the fitting then get a line with that size nuts, remove the cyl end and install the proper nut there and make the correct flare.
