brake caliper differences?

[76zimmer]

I have 1979 D60 calipers for my K5, and 79 K20 calipers for the 14BFF.

1) Do the D60 calipers use the same size lines as the 1/2t stuff.
2) What year starts metric banjo's on the calipers?

The 10 bolts started the metric.
The D60 at least in my case was the same as a D44 on my 80 crewcab.
I know because I swapped my 60 out in favor of a D44.

IIRC 1979 was the cutoff year. Be sure to check them at the parts store. When I got mine one was metric and the other was Standard. The calipers are identical so they must have mixed them up at the reman facility.

I'm going with adapters and AN type hose for mine. Check out this post.
