rear brake hose connection
Has anyone used a rear brake hose from Napa Auto, part #36542 to replace a 1967 original one?
The Napa part above refers to a 1968 not a 1967. The end that goes into the three-way on the rear axle on the original hose is beveled on the inside and the outside. The hose from Napa is beveled on the inside only. I just spent two months sandblasting and painting every part of the rearend on my 67 C10 and do not want brake fluid leaking all over everything. So please take a look at the question above and respond if you have come across this situation personally. Also, can anyone tell me if there is a hose I can purchase that is the same as the original, beveled on the inside & outside at the axle connection? Both the new and the original hoses are between 22 & 3/4 to 22 & 7/8 inches long. Thanks, Guy |

Re: rear brake hose connection
I don't exactly remember the specifics, but I had an issue with the hoses at one of the part stores. So, I ended up getting one from this place because they are local and I wanted to get it back together (I'm sure there are a lot of vendors on here that can help you out also) :
