They are flexible rubber brake hoses

If you try an auto parts store, they will help you

If they can't get the parts, because of a junction block
or brass T-fitting in the hose assy,then a dealer can get it

I would do the front also,if the rear blew out

SOURCE: 1999 Durango brake line leak

I have just done this job with aftermarket brake lines in three pieces, two 40" and one 30" joined by unions. I did not take the tank down, it is possible to reach the clips holding the brake line from the top reaching in with your fingers from the outside reaching over the frame. Make sure to have good light and a flashlight at hand. Above each clip holding the electric cable run you see next to the tank there is also a slot (in the same clip) for holding the brake line. I used the two long pieces in the rear and slid one in place, then joined it with the second one the short piece I used to do the final bend up to the junction block. The uninon for that one to the other two conveniently ended up right behind the front most clip holding the brake line and the fuel line to the chassis. I am not sure if I saved time or effort doing it this way I just shyed away from bringing down the tank as all I jacked up the car with was drive on ramps and there was not much space under it. Also the brake line did not conveniently burst when I had an almost empty tank to handle but the other way around...

SOURCE: 1994 Dodge Caravan rear brakes won't wear out.

Yes, this is very normal. You'll replace the front 3 times before you'll have to replace the rears. The reason for this is because 80% of your braking is in the front. There is nothing wrong with your brake system.

NO. NEED A PICTURE REAR BRAKE LINE ABOVE WHEEL WELL AND GAS TANK.

Hello, here's the deal with that brake line. Most of the line is wrapped in a steel spring from about 5-6 inches from the rear bake hose till around the transfer case and then it starts back up again and runs all the way up to the ABS Hydralic Control Unit. What you need to do is forget the original line. It is fastened to the left side of the frame and pinched in very tight in several areas that your not going to get it out. What you should do is get a roll of 3/16 polycoated brake line with US threads. Run that from the HCU to your left rear brake hose. It will tread right into the brake hose, but I am not sure about the HCU. Ford has a tendency of using metric fitings on the stuff up front and standard for all the other fittings. I would also get a new hose for the rear because it will probably break when you try to get the line off. This is what I did with mine. I cut the brake line with snips right about the hose connector. Then I bent the metal bracket that holds the hose to the chassis down. This allowed me to get the hose off of the bracket easier. You can always bend it back up when your done. If you change the hose, you might want to consider getting new nuts or even new lines for the rear wheels. Brake lines seem easy when you start it. But they always tend to need more then think when you start out. Oh yeah, and before you run that brake line along and though the chassis. Wrap the end with electrical tape to keep all the rust and mud out of the line. I hope this helps.

Antifreeze leaking from under middle of van drivers side

Possibly coming from engine compartment (engine or radiator, hoses, etc) and running back on frame before dripping down. Pressure test the cooling system to eliminate some of causes if this is the case,

1994 Dodge GC with no directionals or brake lights

I would check the wiring around the area you worked on. The abs wheel speed sensor connector or wiring might have a poor connection now or the harness going to the sensor. I would just double check and then wiggle the wiring harness. If the fuses stop blowing out then you know you have a short in the harness or a short to ground. You need to make sure the harness is routed exact same way as before and no hitting any metal at all.

Good Luck

Brake line hose has hole in it

The only real solution to your problem is to replace the damaged line, bleed the brakes, and check for leaks after you are done. The line should go up to the frame, and go into a small metal bracket that is welded to the frame. The hose is usually held in place by a small metal clip, and a steel brake line will thread into the end of the hose assy. where it terminates in the frame mounted brakcet.

1993 Dodge Caravan

I had exactly the same problem after I changed the fuel filter. Tried new clamps and tightening them etc. Nothing worked until I purchased a foot long hose from a auto store for couple bucks and replaced the both ends with the new hoses. Old hose hardens over time and it doesn't seal well after it has been reused.
