You can find the tubing at home depot or lowes I don't know the size unfortunately. For the fittings, they where from the dorman bleeder kit, which btw is horrible. It comes with a TINY black hose and you only get one of each fitting...

$20 for two plastic fitting... Lesson learned, you can build it better and cheaper.


Again, you can get these fittings in metal for a lot less at home depot or Lowes, and they won't leak on you.
