Removing Brake Hose
The hose readily comes loose from the cylinder but am having problems breaking it loose from the block on the frame. Pointers needed!
This is on a ‘37 with juice brakes. |

Re: Removing Brake Hose
As this is a non standard application, what is the block you refer to?
Normal type have one fitting with a tube fitting in it and the other side has a block with a banjo bolt into the end of the hose. What do you have? A picture would help. Have you looked for a banjo bolt? Mart. |

Secure the block well with whatever means are necessary. A six point flare wrench is best for the hose. Apply muscle... it'll come loose.

Re: Removing Brake Hose
If you can slide the correct size box wrench over the loose end, use that. Six point one would be best.

Re: Removing Brake Hose
Brass block and banjo bolt on the left side, 1/4" tube fitting on the right side.
If it is done like a stock Hydraulic setup, Bill Hold the block with an adjustable wrench and break the banjo bolt loose with a box end wrench. |
