So I do not know mechanical terminology, so I’ll explain what problem I’m having an hopefully someone knows what I’m taking about.
so on my 99 WJ Limited, the passenger rear brake leaks brake fluid. I changed the brakes and bled them, added fluid but still leaks. I took the wheel off and looked at the line going to the caliber with a bolt that allows brake fluid to flow, an noticed it was leaking from there. (underneath) I have the brake pedal to the floor and the vehicle still inches forward. Ended up back into a camper that was parked in front of my house. So if anyone has any suggestions on what I should do to replace it or fix the problem. Please send it my way. Thanks all..

That is called a banjo bolt. If it is leaking, try tightening and if that doesn't work get a couple of new copper gaskets (flat rings) and change them out
