HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINES AND TUBING
Hydraulic Brake Hose
These hoses require no service other than periodic
inspection for damage from road hazards or other like
sources. Should damage occur and replacement become
necessary, the following procedure is to be followed.
Removal
1. Separate hose from steel line by turning double flare
connector out of hose fitting.
2. Remove
shaped retained spring from hose
fitting and withdraw hose from support bracket.
3. Turn hose fitting out of wheel cylinder inlet or
junction block.
Installation
1. If hose is to be installed in wheel cylinder,
and nuts
and tighten
a. Install new copper gasket on cylinder end of hose
(male end).
b. Moisten threads with brake fluid and install hose
in wheel cylinder inlet.
2. For junction block installations,
a. Moisten threads on male end with brake fluid.
b. Turn male end into junction block and tighten
securely.
3. With weight of vehicle on wheels and suspension in
normal position (front wheels straight ahead) pass
female end of hose through support bracket, allowing
hose to seek its own position. Insert hex of hose
fitting into the
point hole in support bracket in
1 2
position which induces least twist to hose (fig.
NOTE:
Do not twist hose unduly during this
operation as its natural curvature is absolutely
necessary to maintain proper hose-to-suspen­
sion clearance through full movement of the
suspension and steering parts.
4. Install " U" shaped retainer spring to secure hose in
support bracket.
5. Inspect by removing weight completely from wheel.
If working at front wheels, turn steering geometry
from lock to lock while observing hose position. Be
sure that hose does not touch other parts at any time
during suspension or geometry travel. If contact
does occur, remove hose retainer spring and rotate
the female hose end in the support bracket one or
two points in appropriate direction, replace retainer
spring and re-inspect as outlined in this paragraph.
