[VAC] Re: Hydraulic/Electric Brake Controllers (Was 'Stromberg tow car kits')




Not sure, except that the K-H instructions are most insistent upon this
point.
It could be that brass is too soft, and that it might be possible to drive
the invverted flare too far into the pressure fitting  in the controller.
All i know is, once one torques down on a brass fitting into a
cadmium-plated one, they're not EVER coming out, short of cutting and
reaming and re-tapping...
