Dorman - HELP Brake Hydraulic Hose to Caliper Bolt P/N:13940
Keep the front brake hose firmly connected to the caliper with the Dorman brake hydraulic hose to caliper bolt, part number 13947 from Dorman - HELP. This brake hose connecting bolt is built to replace an original that is missing or damaged. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1980-2003 Ford F-150, 1991-2009 Ford Explorer and 2005-2008 Ford Escape. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
The bolt fastens the brake hydraulic hose to the caliper at the front brake, helping hold the joint where brake fluid passes from the hose into the caliper. Brake fluid seepage at that joint, damaged or stripped threads, or heavy corrosion are signs the bolt may need replacing. Diagnose the source of any leak before you replace parts. When installing, follow the vehicle service information for the correct torque and for whether new sealing washers are required. Bleed the brake system as directed after the hydraulic connection has been opened.
