In the middle of fixing the brakes on my Jeep my buddy goofed and ripped the rear soft lines at the axle. I noticed one looks to be a crimped fitting. Is there any easy fix for this?

 

Replace it with a YJ soft line.. make your buddy go pick one up for you of course.

 

I agree with this ^^^^^^

 

Hes buying it lol. Is it a crimp fitting or is it a screw on one that looks like a crimped one?

 

both should be double crimped.

 

Crap any way to remove or repair it easily or do I need to take it to someone and have it fixed

 

Bump. I have same issue

 

its a rubber flex hose readily available at any auto parts store. you CANNOT repair them (technically they can if you know a shop who specializes in hydraulic line repair but you are talking $$$$$ and its a safety issue why not just get a new one)besides the cost of a NEW one is cheaper than the frustration of going through the trouble of trying to salvage it or going to a junk yard to get frustrated buying a used safety item. if you are running a stock suspension i would suggest keeping the stock line... probably wont cost more than 20-30 bucks soak the brake lines and bleeders with PB while you go pick up the part

 

A new one is $15.. buy a new one.

 

Will a YJ one work? Jeep does have a lift kit on it

 

Of course a YJ one will work... we told you in post 2 and 3... jesus h...

 

My bad I forgot about that. Found that Itll work but not currectly. The 8.25 that I got has a breather that is screwed into the brake connection.

 

YJ line is recommended because it is a little LONGER than the XJ line with the exact same fittings. Same goes for the front lines.

 

Gotcha gotta do the fronts soon.
