  Q: How to Replace the Rear (Jounce) Brake Line on Chevrolet Silverado 2500?

  A:

  First lift the car before cleaning all dirt and foreign items from the brake line fittings and hose. Apply a rubber seal to the brake pipe fitting to stop brake fluid from leaking and getting contaminated. Put a back up wrench on both pieces while you detach the brake hose pipe fitting from the brake system and cover the pipe fitting end. To remove the jounce hose from its bracket just unclip the brake hose holder and get the hose free from the mount. After plugging the exposed brake pipe ends seal the blocked brake pipe fitting on the junction block of the rear axle. One should first remove the axle junction block retaining bolt and then disconnect the brake hose from the vehicle. Start by attaching the brake hose to its mounting position before fixing the junction block retaining bolt to the axle at 22 Nm torque. Join the rear brake pipes with the junction block on the axle while tightening the connection to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.). Put the brake hose in place without allowing it to twist against suspension elements or touch the bracket. Fix the jounce hose clip in place before you disconnect the rubber cover and join the brake hose port to the brake pipe housing while holding the back up wrench tight. Keep the bracket and pipe straight while torquing the port nuts to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.). Make sure the brake hose stays away from suspension parts when you install it into the bracket. Complete the process by draining fluid from the hydraulic brakes before putting the vehicle down.

  Q: How to replace the front brake line on Chevrolet Silverado 2500?

  A:

  Before you begin work raise and support your vehicle before taking off the wheel assembly. Cover open brake pipe connectors with plug caps and wipe dirt from brake hose and pipe fittings to shield the system from fluid loss and contamination. Secure the brake pipe fitting with a back up wrench before disconnecting the crake hose from it. Cover the brake pipe fitting end with a hose cap or plug. Take off the brake hose retaining clip from the mounting bracket and after that remove the brake hose bolt with bracket from the upper Control Arm and Steering Knuckle. Take out the brake hose from the caliper by removing both copper brake hose gaskets and the brake hose to caliper bolt from the brake caliper. The installation involves using 2 new copper gaskets and fixing them with the brake hose bolt. Position the brake hose on top of the caliper bolt then place two new washers before tightening them to 40 nm (30 ft. Lbs.). Rephrase the following sentence. Keep the following points direct and flowing while installing the brake hose against suspension components. Attach brake hose parts to Steering Knuckle and upper Control Arm by tightening bolts to 9 nm (80 inch lbs.). Restore the brake hose clamp before placing the rubber plug aside and join the brake hose fitting to its pipe through a back up wrench while preventing twist or contact from bracket or pipe segments. Secure the fitting nut with 25 nm torque (18 ft. Lbs.). Let out hydraulic brake fluid and set back the tire assembly while watching if the brake hose hits suspension and wheel components during sharp turns; repair as needed before dropping the vehicle down.
