Air leaking from front when brakes applied

[Wayne Kotila]

Did you check the rubber hoses to the front brakes? When you step on the brake pedal air pressureapplies your front brakes so you will have air pressure in the supply hoses tountil you take your foot off the brake pedal. Sometimes from age those hoses will start leaking where the end is crimped on the hose and if you need to replace them, a farm supply store will carry high pressure hydraulic hose in differentdiameters and lengths and have different end adapters to convert the end connector to what you need. You should be able to get a new hose and adapters if needed for under $20.00.

Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Air leaking from front when brakes applied

Hi there

Today while finishing up Air Force One supplemental braking install for towed vehicle, had engine off and when applied brakes to test Air Force One and while pedal was depressed there was a constant air leak up front around the left front area, but could not find it. Any suggestions on where it might be, will work on taking front driver side panel open and looking in there, but it is so tight in there and i dont know what i am looking for so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
