I am upgrading my brake system and I want to install steel braided brake hoses. Does anyone know where I can buy some for a 1994 Dodge Ram 1500 2WD shortbed? It's a 3.9L V6 5 speed. It's the one that is raised, not the low version. Most sites have the brake hoses listed as 4WD. Is there a difference? I am looking for hoses similar to the Russell 694540 kit. Will this kit (for a similar year Ram but for 4WD version) work? Let me know. Thanks.

 

Before spending that kind of coin, I would give them a call, and see if they don't have something that is actually made for your truck.

Thanks a lot. I was actually referred to the Russellperformance website by a seller who didn't have the hoses available. The item number on their website is 694500. Just posting this so that anyone having difficulty locating the steel hoses for the 2WD can cross-check availability with the correct item number!

 

I bought mine from Classic Tube. They have an online catalog, but will also make them up for you if you call and talk with them and send them your old factory line (if they don't already have a listing for your year/make/model).

 

Thanks a lot for the information. I didn't even know that they custom make the brake hoses. I did get some from a Russellperormance reseller (item number 694500) but if they don't fit right, I'll definitely send the originals over to Classic Tube.
