Disconnect the brake line from the hose fitting using a flare-nut wrench and a back-up wrench.- Remove the U-clip from the female fitting at the bracket and detach the hose from the bracket.- Unscrew the brake hose from the caliper and thread it into the caliper, tightening securely.- Install the female fitting in the hose bracket without twisting the hose and secure it with the U-clip.- Attach the brake line to the hose fitting using the flare-nut wrench and back-up wrench.- Ensure there are no kinks in the hose and that it doesn't contact any part of the suspension.

For vehicles equipped with ABS, ensure immediate plugging of the brake line after disconnecting it from the brake hose to prevent fluid drainage and air entering the HCU, as the HCU on ABS systems cannot be bled without a costly tool. During inspection every six months, raise the vehicle, support it on jackstands, and thoroughly check the rubber hoses connecting steel brake lines to front and rear brake assemblies for damage like cracks, leaks, blisters, and chafing. If any issues are found, replace the hose with a new one. To replace the flexible hose, disconnect the brake line using a flare nut wrench, ensuring the frame bracket and brake line are not bent. Remove the retaining clip, detach the hose from the bracket and body, and promptly plug the metal brake line to prevent air from entering the system. Replace the banjo bolt on the caliper with new sealing washers. Connect the hose to the caliper using new sealing washers, without twisting the hose, and attach the other end to the chassis bracket. Tighten fittings securely using flare nut wrenches and ensure no kinks or contact with suspension components. For replacing metal brake lines, use correct steel parts, avoid copper tubing, and support the new line securely with ample clearance from moving or hot components. After installation, check the master cylinder fluid level, bleed the brake system, and test the brakes carefully before driving the vehicle in traffic.

About every six months, inspect the rubber hoses that connect the steel brake lines with the front and rear brake assemblies for cracks, chafing, leaks, blisters, and other damage. Use a light and mirror for a thorough check. If any hose exhibits these conditions, replace it with a new one. To replace a flexible hose, disconnect the brake line from the hose fitting using a flare nut wrench, being careful not to bend the frame bracket or brake line. If the fitting is tight, hold the fitting block with a wrench to prevent bending. Detach the hose from the bracket and body. Remove the banjo bolt from the caliper and discard the sealing washers. Connect the hose to the caliper using new sealing washers and tighten the banjo bolt. Connect the other end of the line to the chassis and install the bolt, leaving it slightly loose. Connect the brake line to the fitting block by hand, then tighten securely using a flare nut wrench. Tighten the bracket bolt securely. Ensure there are no kinks in the hose and that it doesn't contact any part of the suspension. For metal brake lines, use the correct parts and avoid copper tubing. Prefabricated brake lines with flared tube ends and installed fittings are available, or you can cut and flare the new tubing to match the line being replaced. Bend the line to the proper shape if necessary, ensuring it is securely supported in the brackets and has 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 before driving.
