Dynamic Friction 350-74000 front brake hydraulic hose for the 1954-1964 Volkswagen Beetle and other vehicles is the flexible hose that carries brake fluid pressure from the rigid brake line to the wheel.
A cracked or bulging sleeve, brake fluid seeping at an end fitting, or a soft pedal can mean this hose is worn, though a leaking brake line or the master cylinder can be behind a soft pedal too. Look for the cause first, then replace the hose if it is at fault.
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1954-1964 Volkswagen Beetle and the 1955-1964 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. Both cars take two hoses at the front, so this listing is one of a pair: order two and fit them together.
