Keep brake fluid moving to the rear brakes as the suspension travels with this Dorman brake hydraulic hose, part number H380224 from the Dorman - First Stop line. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1993-2001 Nissan Altima and is cataloged for both the rear left and rear right positions. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
A brake hydraulic hose is the flexible section of the brake circuit. It carries fluid from the rigid brake line to the brake at the wheel and bends as the suspension and wheel move. Dorman engineered this hose to replicate the original hose's fit, function and performance on the vehicles and positions it is listed for, as part of a complete brake repair.
Signs that a brake hose may need replacing include visible cracking, bulging or swelling, brake fluid seepage at the hose or its fittings, and a soft or spongy brake pedal. A spongy pedal can have other causes, so inspect the brake system before you replace parts. The brake system must be bled after installation. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and any sealing washers, and for whether they may be reused.
