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 Identification Mark *2 Inside of the Vehicle
  
  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.
