QuestionHow does the top of the brake hose from the caliper to the first junction block, come apart? I'm trying to change out the hose and can figure out how to take it apart.
AnswerA banjo bolt goes through the square end of the hose, and into the caliper. A copper gasket washer on each side of the block, before screwing the bolt into the caliper.
The other end screwd into a fitting clipped to the frame.
That metal part about in the center of the hose is just where it is bolted to the steering knuckle.
That is also the spot where most hoses break down inside, and get plugged.
Get the new hose, and look at it, and you can see what all comes off.
