Thanks. This part number is for the front, correct?
Front or rear.
Back in the day when I did my truck I ordered a bunch of different ones and measured their length. Always meant to post them for reference at some point.
Do you know the length on the 96940-34705 @Onur?
18.5 inches
I have a 1972 FJ40 with a 4" lift and I am looking to replace the four brake hoses as I am doing some other brake work on my rig. I am struggling to find the correct OEM hoses to order. Vehicle is in another state at the moment, so cannot look to see/measure exactly what it has unfortunately.
Would 96940-34705 be the correct hose for front and back, per suggestions in this thread?
Does anyone have a part number from the frame to the axle for the two hoses in front?
I was also looking at the SOR SS Braided Hose Kit that has the four hoses I need. Kit says they are "longer than stock" but when I called they could not tell me if they would work with a 4" lift other than "probably would work". Anyone have any experience with these kits?
Other suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Matt

There are four soft hoses on your truck's brake system (unless it's been changed by another person). Soft from frame to axle in the rear... soft from frame to axle in the front... and soft from front axle housing to brake backing plate (x2).
You need two extended hoses for the "frame to axle" lines (ie. 96940-34705). Your soft lines for each front wheel backing plate can be original length, no need to extend them.
Thank you for confirming the frame to axle lines.
So for the two soft lines for each front wheel backing plate, is the OEM part # 96920-32255? I was just looking for confirmation this is correct before I order them...on some websites there is a note "If your vehicle has a lift, you may not be able use OEM brake hoses due to the increased length requirement". Thanks.
For my FJ40 I used 96910-32305 for the front brake soft lines (I believe these are a 1982 FJ40 part number).
Mine has a 2" lift. Apparenlty when lifted the OEM length center rear hose (17") was left in place. Streched like Dolly's bra strap! Really dangerous with the old cracking hose. NLA on the Toyota hose listed above. Dorman H38256 fits an 85-86 4runner, and is 19". It fits with enough slack for travel. BTW the front center OEM length is fine with this small amount of lift.
