    I have a 62 pickup. Have been searching for a replacement rear brake hose (the one back by the rear end). I measured mine, it was about 17". Mac's has this:

    but they say it's only 10.5". I've found others that look like the same thing that are about that long, but the fitment charts/info with those don't specify my year make/model. Anyone have a link to a correct replacement?

    It sounds like maybe someone replaced the rear hose at some point with a front hose, which are about 17". I can check the length of mine in the morning.

    I bought mine at OReilly's. They're pretty easy to find. RockAuto also sells them for substantially less money than Macs. The Raybestos rear line says its 11.18"

    NAPA's supposed to have mine in tomorrow. They say it's about 10" long, which I think will be long enough. Thanks though.
