Dorman - First Stop Brake Hydraulic Hose P/N:H38173
Dorman - First Stop Brake Hydraulic Hose P/N:H38173
$21.99

Keep pressurized brake fluid flowing across the flexing gap between the chassis and the wheel with this Dorman brake hydraulic hose, part number H38173 from the First Stop line. It is a direct-fit replacement for the front left or front right position on the 1984-1987 Chevrolet Corvette. It is precision-engineered to match the original brake hose's fit, function and performance as part of a complete brake repair.

  • Ideal replacement: Engineered to perform like the original brake hose on specific vehicles.
  • Position-specific: Built to precise measurements for an exact fit and easy installation.
  • Quality assured: Its materials are tested to exacting government-regulated safety and durability standards.
  • Durable design: The hose is EPDM rubber, and its fittings are specially coated to resist corrosion.

A front brake hose flexes with every suspension and steering movement, so it can wear with age. Signs it may need replacing include cracks or bulges in the outer cover, brake fluid seeping at a fitting, or a soft, spongy pedal. If a worn hose is the cause, this unit replaces it. Diagnose the brake system before you replace parts, and bleed the brakes after installation as directed by the vehicle's service information.
