I had a crack on the brake line behind the back right break drum. Trying to find the part. Its basically a U shaped metal tube with threads on both ends.

I have attached a photo, and if anyone can help me find this part online that would be great.


Cheers,
James

Standard practice is to measure the length of your old one, and go to almost any parts store and buy a section of new brake tubing in the nearest length with the correct threaded ends already on it. Take your old one so you can be sure the fittings will be correct thread pitch and all. (Thread length is not real important.)

Bend gently to fit, do not kink.

So honda would not have this exact piece? I was thinking of swinging by the honda auto parts for it.

If i do it at a parts store, i guess i can use a pulley to curve the line gently.

Item #10, I assume. $59.88 retail USD. Ouch.

I picked a 4 door for this link, you need to choose your own car at the beginning and pick out your own choice.



Ok, the prudent choice is to get one at a parts store and bend it yourself.

Dealer list is almost $60, and I seriously doubt any dealer would have it on-hand. I'd expect it to be a special order.


You can get the tube at a parts store for $5 and bend it yourself.
(Autozone shows a 12 inch line for $4.99)
You can get a few and screw up the first 4 and still be money ahead.


The Zone might even let you use a tubing bender too.
Or you can wrap it around a smooth pipe of whatever size you need
