Brake line question?

[tracyt3]

I have a 85 Pt40, the right rear dual tire air line to the brake is
leaking air at the fitting where the rubber hose goes into the brake
assembly. I was able to put a hose clamp on it to get it home but now
I have to fix it. I was wondering before I tear into this job: how is
the line connected? is it a permanent fitting, a compresion or what?
and how is the best way to get it off? Do I have to take the entire
line off? any insight would be greatly appreciated. I am sure there
are many here that have had the same problem. Thanks.

John,

The ends are permanently attached to the hose. One end of the hose
should have a swivel fitting. Take that off first, then the other
end. Take the hose with you to a heavy-duty truck dealership or
parts store, and with that and about $5 you can get a new one.

David,Chris and Randy Thanks for the replys

I put the new brake line on today works great also got a spare, thanks
for the input. Other than alot of grease and a few crawls under the
Coach it was real easy.
