Caliper Hose Assembly

CALIPER HOSE ASSEMBLY






NOTE: The axle should be supported in the normal curb position for rear brake hose change.

1. Install prop rod on the brake pedal to keep pressure on the brake system, Holding pedal in this position will isolate master cylinder from hydraulic brake system and will not allow brake fluid to drain out of brake fluid reservoir while brake lines are open. This will allow you to bleed out the area of repair instead of the entire system.
2. Raise and support the vehicle.
3. Remove the brake line going into the brake hose.
4. Remove the mounting bolt for the brake hose at the frame.
5. Remove the banjo bolt (4) at the caliper (2) and discard the copper washers (3).
6. Remove the hose (6).
