Re MFR caliper

Post by bettyford250 »

I recently purchased a set of re furbished Dayton Dual piston Caliper for my '69 F250. At first site everything looked dandy. But once i got back to the shop i noticed that the diameter of the Banjo bolt hole (where the brake lines attach to the caliper) was drastically larger than the bolt attached to the brake line on the truck. New banjo bolt seems like the easy solution. But the parts dealer doesn't sell them :hmm: !!! He sells the caliper that i can't use though :x !! So my question, Does anyone have a set of daytons with a 7/16" banjo bolt attaching there brake lines? I think the bleed screw was about 1/4". Also does anyone know if "Dayton" was the brakes Ford had outfitted the trucks with in '68 and up?
