The brake hoses on my new beams have rotten rubber, so new ones are in order. They are the same length on each side, but one has a bigger hole on the inside. Does it matter? Could I use two left side ones as long as the length is correct? My dealer doesnt specify inside size. Just which union that fits and lenght. Can't find any right side with the correct lenght.. hehe
the hoses I fitted to ours xmas time where different lengths, cant remember which side was longer, r/h/side I think, but some suggested use 2 of the same length.
Don't remember there being different union sizes thou, still have receipt so can look up part numbers.
as long as the hoses are long enough so they don't bend tooooo much and pinch, or not long enough and "strain", they should be ok??
they have to accommodate the suspension movement
if they are too long and stick out and can possibly be caught and ripped out due to road debris, then they may fail and mot test?, you have annual safety tests of the car in Norway?
ok, so they don't have to be a certain lenght to work as they should? Its just not bend to much or stretch. Alright!
Safety tests every 2 years
