Hollander owners.

Could somebody please let me know the interchange vehicles for 1937-38 front brake hose, series 40.

UPDATE;

Have since found a 1920-1948 hollander in our local library. I now see that brake hoses are excluded, so there is no answer to my original question.

New question, what is correct length? I see a few sellers and the lenght varies by a few inches. My brake hose was damaged by catching on the damper arm.

Hi,

Last year I needed new hoses for the LaSalle. The ones that were new in 1982 had deteriorated and were blocked with rubber crud. That made braking a real adventure.

I got terrific new ones from Brake Hoses Unlimited in Holland, MI. I just checked their site and they have what you need listed as a stock item. Their email is:

goodbrakes@brakehoses.biz.

These guys will make exactly what your hoses are supposed to be, and they meet DOT standards. Avoid South American knock-offs at 1/3 the price--they are not DOT compliant. Your life is worth more than a few bucks savings in cost.
