Which brake hose?

[rich1060us]

ok newbie here, I have a 95 ranger that i put bent beams and brakes off an older ranger. The brake lines did not seem to match up. I bought front brake hoses for a 85 ford ranger and they didnt work either. Can anyone tell me which lines to use?

No, someone here knows, they just haven't run across the thread yet. I'm not sure what the answer is myself, but someone who knows will come along, just be patient.

There is a section specifically for brakes here, it may help to post this up there instead.

What do you mean when you say bent beams? If i were you i would go to pick n pull or a junk yard and compare a replica of your vehicle to one that you got the brakes and bent beams from. Then see if theres a spot where the lines meet up where you could take one section from one car and another from a different car. If no luck there then you can always buy replacement brake lines pretty cheap at an auto parts store to see if you can fill whatever gaps aren't lining up.

you post at nearly 11pm then complain because you didn't get a reply by 1am?

You converted from the two piston brakes to other beams with the single piston brakes?

And now your lines won't fit? what did you expect?

There are two different calipers offered earlier AND the fact that 1995's are ABS....

Where on your "new" calipers does the brake hose attach?
