If it is just a hose to the right rear, then it is not stock, some pictures would help a lot. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 306 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 306 | i took hoses off each wheel of my 53 3/4 ton

The normal setup is a steel line from each rear backing plate to a brass tee near the centre of the axle. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 38 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 38 | Hose generally refers to rubber. A line is steel. Steel lines are generally made by hand at home or in a shop. The black flexible hoses that we call rubber are purchased from a supplier. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 | I was asking Pontiacfarmer the question. I am fairly clear on what a hose is, thanks. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 7 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 7 |

I'd say someone put that in there somewhere along the way, is the wheel cylinder port a standard 1/4" inverted flare? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 7 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 7 | donk know how to add photos so il do like this at the moment

if you guys never seen anything like..what do you think I have seen..........then
need to take it to inspection before I remowe that hose..it wont pass and if I remowe it before inspection..then it might take WEEEKS to get a hose done
grrrr
or a org pipe?

the problem is what size on the fittings..one end against the t is usable but against the wheelcylinder......?
