Why do I need a longer brake hose for a lifted vehicle?

When you lift a vehicle, the suspension travel increases. Standard brake hoses may become too short, leading to stress, potential damage, or restricted movement. A longer hose ensures proper connection and function without being stretched taut.

What is the advantage of stainless steel braided brake hoses over rubber ones?

Stainless steel braided hoses are more resistant to abrasion and corrosion than rubber. They also resist expansion under pressure, which helps maintain a firmer brake pedal feel compared to rubber hoses that can bulge and soften.

Does this brake hose come with the necessary fittings or hardware?

This product is for the rear brake hose only. It is designed to connect to your existing brake line fittings. Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions or consult a professional if you are unsure about installation or required hardware.

Product Details

When you're working on a lifted Willys, Ford, or Jeep from the 41-71 era, you often need a little extra length on your brake lines. This rear brake hose from Rugged Ridge is designed to give you that extra reach, extending 2 inches beyond the stock length. It's a crucial part for maintaining proper brake function and pedal feel after a lift kit is installed.

This hose is built with a tough stainless steel braided outer cover over a Teflon inner hose. This construction helps it withstand the rigors of off-roading and resist corrosion, making it a more durable option than standard rubber hoses. The stainless steel braiding also helps prevent the hose from expanding under pressure, which can lead to a softer brake pedal. It meets or exceeds DOT safety regulations, so you know it's built to perform reliably.

This hose is sold individually, so be sure to check if you need one or two for your specific application. It's a solid choice for keeping your braking system working right on your classic Jeep or truck.
