Brake hose replacement
Asked by GuruH9ZXK Jun 29, 2019 at 01:17 AM about the 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LS RWD
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
I'm replacing the front right (passenger)
side brake hose on my 2004 Chevy
1500 2wd. I took off the OE hose and
looking at it I can not figure out how to
remove the braket on the hard line (not
the end to screws into the caliper) end
of the hose. Do I need it? And the banjo
bolt wont pop out. On the OE hose are
they fixed into to brake hose?

Cant u just buy the whole replacement line?
I did. I bought the new rubber hose that runs from the caliper to the hard line behind the fender well. But it didn't come with a bracket to mount to the frame like old one does and the old hose the banjo bolt wont come off to use on the new hose
Just go to YouTube (was just there) there's a ton of videos of guys showing u how its done
I did that too, I have not had luck with it on my own but i had a friend help out and got it done. If anyone that dont know the retainer pops out then you can remove the bracket to put on the new hoses.
