notes: A worn out brake hose
usually does not leak, it collapses internally (this is by
design). When this happens, it will prevent brake fluid from
getting to or leaving the wheel cylinders which will either
cause a pull to one direction when braking or a sticking brake.
Normally, when one brake hose is going out, its best to change
all four at the same time. Here's why: if one hose has gone out,
most likely the other hoses are the same age and have been
subjected to the same amount of wear and tear and are bound to
fail soon thereafter. Also, as you will need to bleed your brake
system after installing even one hose, it's easier, faster, and
cheaper to only have to bleed your system once instead of after
every new hose.

noted. We get our rubber
brake hoses from multiple suppliers due to issues sourcing them
all from one manufacturer. Our primary is CEF out of Italy but
supply from them has been extremely sketchy so we normally back
up to Febi Bilstein. Febi's brake hoses are made in China but
are excellent quality and meet all DOT J1401 standards. If we
can't find Febi then our next brand is usually Sunsong which is
also excellent quality and they too meet all DOT J1401
standards.
