need info/pics on rear brake hoses

[jet-taz]

for those using a b-body 8 3/4 rear . what are you using for a rear flex hose.?

I have an A body 8 3/4, but this is an issue nobody ever mentions.  I have super stock springs, and I used long shocks, so you need a longer brake hose.  You don't want the brake hose acting as a limiter or pulling apart.  I found a Wagner BH 50396 which is 3-4 inches longer than stock, and has the same ends.  I often wondered if the guys who thought their shocks were topping out, checked the brake hoses at full extension.

I have a stock B body one on the Duster and a SS braided one on the Valiant.

here's where  i need info. all of the flex hoses shows female ends, i think i'll need one to be male.the one in the photo won't help because the brake lines  to the cylinders won't line up.

I just bought the one in the pic and tryed to put it on my 81/4. The flex hose is not long enough for my Barracuda not even close. The 81/4 had that same hose on it when I got it.

I cut the bracket and weld in a peice to extend the bracket down closer to the rearend. Then use the hose it calls for.

Here is a pic of the brake hose I posted the part number for.  It has a female fitting on the bracket end with the proper lock ring groove and a male fitting on the end that fits into the tee.  It is 21 inches long tip to tip.  Hope this helps.

I don't know what the part number is, but I went with one for an '86 Ram 4 X 4 so I knew it would be more than long enogh when the suspension expanded at launch.  But that one that gkcuda shows should leave you a bunch extra since it looks even longer than the one for a 4 X 4.
