Front brake hoses for a 4" lift?
« on: August 17, 2016, 03:05:18 AM »
I'm installing a 4" Rough Country lift on my 85 k10 and they don't offer the front hoses for this year. The only thing I can find on the net are over $100. Any ideas where to get them for less?
Thanks

Might want to try and see if another year crosses over.  Search Autozone for stock hoses to see what years are compatible to your 85

Hi, I don't know the exact name of the part you need, but you cant check this shop, if you find it, it's for a low price.

If you can figure out the part number, Rockauto  has a spot you can search by part number.

The rough country kit should have brake line relocator brackets...  I don't like that method either.
Make sure the hoses you buy have a DOT certification.
