[stusainte]

Hey everyone been a long time here goes 95 bronco found a rubber brake hose hanging under neith my truck The hose connects to the small junction box mounted to the rear axle hub themeatle brake line comes off the frame to a connector then to a rubber hose to the junction box then this hanging hose coms off the box and cant find where it connects to is this just a vent hose or should it connect to another line ?? any help would be appreciated thanks Stu

I'd like to see a picture of this. You should have a line from the junction block to each rear wheel brake cylinder, a flex line attached to the frame, (similar to the mounting of the front brake lines), then connected to the brake line which runs forward to the proportioning valve.

Good luck,

I think the hose you are refering to is the rear axle vent hose. It should be secured to the frame by a small clip.

look to the right side; "vent hose"

some extend em for off-roading or in places where it floods; such as, Installation w/filters in a 96
