About every six months, with the vehicle raised and securely placed on jackstands, inspect the flexible hoses connecting the steel brake lines to the front and rear brake assemblies for cracks, chafing, leaks, blisters, and other damage, as these are crucial parts of the brake system requiring thorough examination with a light and mirror. If any defects are found, replace the hose with a new one. Begin by cleaning dirt from the hose ends, then use a flare-nut wrench to unscrew the tube nut to avoid rounding off the corners. Remove any bolts or clips securing the hose, and for front hoses, unscrew the brake line fitting while holding the fitting block with another wrench, pull the retaining clip to release the hose from the top bracket, and detach it from the caliper by unscrewing the banjo bolt. For rear hoses, hold the fitting block with pliers, remove the clip, and unscrew the banjo bolt to detach the hose. Disconnect the hose from the caliper, discarding the sealing washers, and attach the new brake hose using new sealing washers, tightening the banjo fitting bolt to the specified torque. Reverse the removal procedure to install the hose, ensuring it is not twisted, and check that suspension or steering components do not contact the hose by having an assistant push down on the vehicle and turn the steering wheel lock-to-lock during inspection. After installation, bleed the brake system. When replacing brake lines, use the correct parts, avoiding copper tubing, and purchase steel brake lines from a dealer or auto parts store. Prefabricated brake lines with flared tube ends and installed fittings are available and can be bent to the proper shapes using a tubing bender. Ensure the new line is well supported in brackets and has sufficient clearance from moving or hot components. After installation, check the master cylinder fluid level, add fluid as necessary, bleed the brake system, and carefully test the brakes before returning the vehicle to normal operation.

About every six months, it is important to inspect the flexible hoses that connect the steel brake lines with the front and rear brake assemblies for any cracks, chafing, leaks, blisters, or other damage. This inspection should be done with the vehicle raised and securely placed on jackstands, using a light and mirror for a thorough check. If any of the hoses exhibit any of the mentioned defects, they should be replaced with new ones. To remove a brake hose, clean all dirt away from the ends of the hose and unscrew the tube nut with a flare-nut wrench. Remove the bolts or clips securing the hose to the body and disconnect the hose from the caliper, discarding the sealing washers. Attach the new brake hose to the caliper using new sealing washers and tighten the banjo fitting bolt to the proper torque specifications. Make sure the hose isn't twisted during installation and check for any contact with suspension or steering components. Bleed the brake system after installation. When replacing metal brake lines, use the correct parts and avoid using copper tubing. Prefabricated brake lines with flared tube ends and fittings installed are available and can be bent to the proper shapes using a tubing bender. Ensure the new line is well supported in the brackets and has enough clearance from moving or hot components. After installation, check the master cylinder fluid level, add fluid if necessary, bleed the brake system, and test the brakes carefully before normal operation.

Every six months, after the vehicle has been raised and support on stands, flex hoses, interconnecting steel brake lines to the forward and rearward brake assemblies, should be examined for cracks, chafing, leaks, blisters and the likes because they are parts of the brake assembly which require a thorough examination with the help of a light and mirror. If you, find any defects replace the hose with a new one. First remove the dirt on the hose ends, then disconnect the brake hose from the brake line, this is done by use of a flare nut wrench to remove the metal tube nut, then unclASP the U clip on the female end at the bracket and finally remove the hose from the bracket. Subsequent to this remove the hose from the caliper, discard the sealing washers of the fitting on both sides and connect the new brake hose to the caliper or the wheel cylinder using the new sealing washer. To replace the hose for the metal line, feed through the frame bracket and make sure the hose is straight before threading the tube nut and installing the u-clip to the frame bracket. Check to make sure that no parts of the suspension or steering get to touch the hose ensuring that an assistant steps on the vehicle's accelerator and rotate the steering from lock to lock during inspection. When replacing brake lines, use correct model part, do not use copper tubing, to get steel brake lines, approach a dealer or auto parts store. Ready-made brake lines with flare for tube ends and fittings are also given and can be formed to the right shape by a tubing bender. It is also good to make sure that the new line is adequately spaced from many possible sources of interference or heat-generating devices. After installation master cylinder, check the master cylinder fluid level and fixed corrosion protection and add fluid, bleed Brake system before test the brake system with careful manner to safe braking system.

Clean all dirt away from the ends of the hose and unscrew the tube nut with a flare-nut wrench. Remove the bolts or clips securing the hose to the body and disconnect the hose from the caliper, discarding the sealing washers.

About every six months.

At the caliper end of the hose, remove the bolt from the fitting block and take off the hose and copper gaskets on either side of the fitting block. When installing the hose, always use new copper gaskets and lubricate all bolt threads with clean brake fluid. Attach the hose to the caliper with the fitting flange engaged with the caliper locating ledge.

The flexible hoses should be inspected every six months.

To install the new brake hose, follow these steps: Route the hose exactly as the original one was. Mount any hose brackets that secure the hose to other components, as equipped. Pass the female fitting through the frame or frame bracket and install it in position with the least amount of twist in the hose. Install the U-clip in the female fitting at the frame bracket. Attach the brake line to the hose fitting using a backup wrench on the fitting. Tighten the tube nut securely.

Disconnect the hose from the caliper, discarding the sealing washers, and attach the new hose using new sealing washers.

It is important to check that the suspension or steering components do not make contact with the hose. This can be done by having an assistant push down on the vehicle and turn the steering wheel lock-to-lock during the inspection.

To install the hose, connect the fitting to the caliper with the inlet fitting bolt and new sealing washers.

Any defective hose should be replaced with a new one.

Cracks, chafing, leaks, blisters, or any other damage should be checked for.
