Front Brake Hoses - 71 w/ air bags
I plumbed in a temporary manual feed valve to the front bags this weekend and made my chassis go up and down .
I soon found that the new stock length front brake hoses are too short when fully airred out. So does some supplier make longer hoses? I only need to gain an inch or so, so I may just extend upward the mount where the hard line joins the flexible line. What have you guys done for this? Here is a progress picture, although it doesn't show the brake line I am asking about. |

Use 71-72 1 ton brake hoses. They are 2 inches longer than regular 1/2 ton hoses. Any 67-72 vendor will sell them. Mine cost 40 bucks per pair from Kenny's Trucks...www.kennystrucks.com

Thanks, Tx Firefighter. I figured there was another hose setup that would be longer that I had just never heard mentioned here before. Looks like Kenny's has good prices too.
