Detailed Description
This Dorman brake hose, part number H36983, is made for front left brake service on 1980-1989 Ford Bronco, 1980-1989 Ford F-150, 1980-1985 Ford F-250 with 1 piston caliper, and 1980-1983 Ford F-100. The hose uses EPDM rubber for the fluid-carrying section, a black rubber outer sleeve, and treated steel end fittings to match OE-style routing and connection requirements. Dorman H36983 is a practical replacement when restoring brake line integrity on classic Ford trucks and SUVs.
What It Helps Fix
- Brake fluid leaks at the front left hose connection
- Cracked, swollen, or aged rubber brake hose material
- Soft or inconsistent brake pedal feel caused by hose deterioration
- Restricted brake fluid flow from internal hose damage
- Corrosion or wear at the original hose fittings
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify front left placement before installation and confirm the banjo and female fitting styles match the vehicle’s original brake hose routing. This hose includes gaskets, but mounting hardware and brackets are not included. Inspect adjacent brake components, hard lines, and caliper condition during service, especially on Ford Bronco, Ford F-150, Ford F-250, and Ford F-100 models with older brake systems. Part number H36983 should be matched to the vehicle’s year, model, and caliper configuration before installation.
Quality Assurance
Dorman designs this brake hydraulic hose to replicate the original fit and function for specific vehicle applications. It is engineered as a replacement for OE-style brake repair on the listed Ford front left positions, with materials selected for durability in brake system service.
