2005 Buick LeSabre Brake Hose

You should always use double-walled steel brake pipes when replacing brake pipes. The use of any other pipe is not recommended and may cause a brake system failure. Carefully route and retain replacement brake pipes and you also should always use the correct fasteners and the original location for replacement brake pipes. Failure to properly route and retain brake pipes may cause damage to the brake pipes and cause a brake system failure. You can not over-tighten the forcing screw or the flare may become oversized.

You should remove the tire and wheel assembly, clean all dirt and foreign material from the brake hose and the brake pipe fittings, disconnect the brake pipe fitting from the brake hose, then cap or plug the brake pipe fitting end, remove the brake hose retainer from the brake hose, remove the brake hose from the brake hose bracket, remove the brake hose to caliper bolt from the brake caliper, remove the brake hose from the brake caliper, remove and discard the two copper brake hose gaskets, install a rubber plug into the brake hose to caliper bolt hole of the brake caliper and remove the hose bracket bolt from the strut assembly and remove the hose.
