Longer Rear Brake Hose?

I am trying to find a off the shelf longer rear brake hose non braided to fit my 1973 cj

The hose I have now has a 7/16 thread on it with two lines of 3/8s feeding the wheel cyl's.. The 1/4 line from the prop valve has 7/16's threads on it I have a 4" lift and the stock length hose looks like it will be stretched tight if I ever flex it out.


I can find all sorts of alternative hoses with google searches but only for later jeeps/


Is there one floating around with the stock size 7/16's input thread thats a tad longer that anyone knows about?

 

Or do you think I can use a newer style with the 3/8's inlet and just put a 7/16 to 3/8's adapter in it and not lose volume?

 

I used a 1985 Dodge W350 rear brake hose. It's 26" long and has 3/8 fittings on it. It's the longest off the shelf hose I found.

More Information for SUNSONG 2201150

 

does it have the 7/16 inlet fitting? My 1973 cj5 had a single 7/16 in and two 3/8's out's that go to the right and left rear wheel cyl's?

 

They're all 3/8 but a brake line adapter is cheap.

 

Try NAPA they should have a book with brake hoses. It gives the specs. of them and then they can put the part number of the one you think will work into their computer.
The counter person may look at you weird but those books should be in a large rack most likely by the desk of the person that handles the commercial accounts.

 

unfortunately my local napa no longer gets books,the parts guy kept some older ones and can help but not all stores will have books....
