REAR BRAKE FLEXIBLE HOSE INSTALLATION

Note


  • Because the left and right rear flexible hoses are not interchangeable, verify the part number when installing the flexible hoses.

  • If the hoses are to be reused, connect them after checking the identification marks placed when each hose was disconnected.

Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedure for the LH side and RH side.

  • The following procedure is for the LH side.


  1. INSTALL REAR BRAKE TUBE FLEXIBLE HOSE (for LH Side)

      Torque:
      19 N*m  { 194 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf }

      Note


      • Install the clip as far as it will go.

      • When installing the rear brake tube flexible hose, face the identification mark to the inside of the vehicle and minimize twisting of the hose.

    2. Using a union nut wrench, connect the 2 brake lines to the rear brake tube flexible hose.

      Torque:
      15 N*m  { 155 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf }

      Note


      • Do not bend or damage the brake line.

      • Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake line from the connecting points.

      • Use the formula to calculate special torque values for situations where the union nut wrench is combined with a torque wrench Click here.

  2. INSTALL REAR BRAKE TUBE FLEXIBLE HOSE (for RH Side)


    1. Install the rear brake tube flexible hose with 2 new clips.
