Keep Braking Power Consistent on Your Lifted CJ5
Lifting the front end of a classic CJ5 stretches the stock brake hose beyond its safe operating range, risking chafing and leaks. The Skyjacker SKYRBL402 front drum brake hose is built for 1976 Jeep CJ5 models with 0 to 2.5 inches of lift, providing the extra length needed to keep the line flexible through full suspension travel. Constructed with a stainless steel braided outer layer and a DOT-certified rubber core, this hose resists abrasion and pressure loss while maintaining firm, responsive brake pedal feel. It mounts directly to factory locations, making it a straightforward addition when finishing off a front lift installation.
Key Features
- Stainless steel braided outer layer for abrasion resistance
- DOT certified rubber core hose for reliable brake pressure
- Sized for 0 to 2.5 inch front lift applications
- Direct bolt-on fit at factory mounting points
- Backed by Skyjacker's limited lifetime warranty
