Hello all,

can anyone tell me the size, is it a standard size, of the rear line to my disc brakes?

I had fronts done. While the truck was sitting still, the brake line just broke and began to drip.

I want to replace...what size is this one line? Looks like it runs along the DS frame and behind the fuel tank.

thank you

 

Line is 3/16", I found 2, 60" and a 30" is just about perfect for an ext. cab, shorter for std. Get yourself those lines, and 3 connectors, and replace her front to back. PS make sure you get the right line up at he front when you do it, I got in a hurry one day and cut the wrong line.

 

You are SO FORTUNATE it broke just sitting there.

 

My 1997 truck had the same thing happen. It didnt affect the front brakes, it just drained the reservoir after a while.

 

You should just get stainless steel ones since you're replacing yours. Don't just replace something-upgrade it!

 

I had one go in the same area behind the fuel tank on my 2000. Had to drop and shift the tank over to get at it. Found that there was a rub area and a water drip which rusted it out. I put a new line in and cut a piece of rubber hose to go over that area and then zip tied it.
