Help with Brake line nut Sizes

Hey guys. Anyone know the size of nut in the rear brake line where it "T's" to the two rear calipers? Looking to replace the nut at the "T." Thank you.

did you strip it or are your tools very selective?
Once you open up that line, you'll need to bleed the entire system.

I just went out and checked. looks like 12mm for the hardlines out the sides and a 14mm(tight fit) for the top fitting/rubber line.
