Default Brake Upgrade On hold

So I was tightening the last banjo bolt over the weekend on my Mach 1 kit when the head snapped off. I know it was a faulty bolt because the other one tightened right down to 20 lb-ft like it said on the package. I put the old brakes back together but what do I do about getting another banjo bolt? Those things are expensive.

That sucks man. Your only option is to get another banjo bolt, can't work without one.

I purchased the kit from Buyfordracing.com. (http://www.buyfordracing.com/shop/pr...roducts_id=509)

Click the link. The bolts are $15.00

Alright so I bought 2 new banjo bolts from the auto parts store but the package says they are for GM. Same thread, look very similar. The question is, will it work?

Not sure about the gm bolts. I wouldn't use them. It's your brakes and your life in the hands of those gm bolts. I bought the ones from ford racing. They should work with the lines you have. If they don't, you might want to give the manufacturer a call and see what will.
