Rubber brake hose on rear axle-washer?

[Grizzlys Garage]

The rubber brake hose on the rear axle, does it get a copper (or other) washer where it threads into the T block on the rear end housing?

'69 Charger...

Thanks.

OD?

Thickness?

Neither the new "T" block or new hose came with one.

Is this a regular auto parts store item?

Or is it Mopar specific ?

Not Mopar specific, but it’s not a “regular” washer. It should be soft copper with a little larger hole. The hose “should” have come with it

 

[Grizzlys Garage]

Thanks, it figures that it should have come with the hose. That's the problem with buying parts, and installing them months or years later. I can't really go back and complain now, especially since I'm not 100% sure where I bought it.

I'll have to try and find something that will work.

Are the washers used in diesel injectors, and motorcycle brakes similar? I keep a supply of them. They can corrode over time, but it takes while.

My 67 rear brake hose is sealed with an inverted flare, not a washer.

Interesting.

Same with me on my 67 wagon.

I am assuming you have an 8 3/4. If so, then the parts manuals show the same part for 67 and 69.

This is off my 68 Charger, and the new hose- inverted flare no washer

 

[Grizzlys Garage]

Thanks to everyone that responded.

It does have that flare thing that was mentioned.

I'm just going to stuff it in there without a washer and see what happens.

What will happen is a nice leak free joint, just like the factory intended. This is assuming that the hose is the correct one and is made properly.
