    29/30 DA

    Can anyone tell me what was the exact originl length of the brake hose for the rear lines, I am talking about the rubber one that runs down from steel line to brass junction box attached to rear axle. I just need to know the length of the rubber portion so if someone could maybe put a string on theirs and measure it for me that would be great. If anyone has an original line, I have original fittings and am having a guy make the hose for me, thanks

    Mine is about 320 mm or 12.5 inches. I think the front 2 and the rear are the same.

    Is yours original? And is that a guestimate standing back and looking at it or were you able to measure it? If it were original than I am sure it would be very dryrotted, thanks

    Don't know the length, but all hoses are the same length. Parts book has all hoses with the same number 303102. These are the same as 28-31 Plymouths (Q,U,30U), all 28-31 Dodges and 28-32 Chryslers (QC,P,PT,R,V,W,KC,CC,CJ,). Maybe one of the people with those cars can measure for you.

    I have a Wagner brake book that goes back to 1930. That states the hose part number for a 1930 DD is FC1098 and has an overall length of 16 1/2 inches. The ends are 11/16 -16 thread.

    Might be you are using a later reprint of a parts book, my DA specific parts book lists them as different hoses. Thanks anyway though

    Sorry for the delay, these are replacements (PBR) and my 3 hoses are all the same length front and back. That's as good as I can measure under the car... only the hose length, the threaded fittings add extra.
