Product Details

The Dorman H38981 is a direct-fit replacement brake hydraulic hose engineered to restore proper brake system function. Built to match the original equipment hose in fit, form, and function, this hose is position-specific and manufactured to precise measurements for a straightforward, no-modification installation.

Key Features:

  • OEM-Matched Design: Precision-engineered to replicate the original brake hose specifications for a guaranteed fit
  • EPDM Rubber Construction: Durable EPDM rubber resists heat, ozone, and brake fluid degradation for long service life
  • Corrosion-Resistant Fittings: Specially coated end fittings resist rust and corrosion for reliable sealing
  • Pressure Tested: Tested to 4,000 PSI to meet and exceed government-regulated safety and durability standards
  • Position-Specific Fit: Manufactured to exact length and configuration for the correct vehicle position — no trimming or adapters required
  • Fully Assembled: Ready to install right out of the box

Replacing worn or cracked brake hoses is a critical part of a complete brake system service. A deteriorating hose can swell internally, restrict fluid flow, or fail under pressure — leading to reduced braking performance or complete brake loss. The Dorman H38981 brake hose delivers a reliable, cost-effective alternative to dealer-sourced OEM parts.

Easy to use website with awesome prices

Not many folks carry female fine thread rod ends!

Decent service and delivery time, window is ok but box is banged up pretty bad and looks like it was old stock or just returned item cause box was retapped closed, product looks in tact.

Great product, fast shipping!!

Order process was fast

Great selection and easy checkout! The only thing is I didnt get an email confirmation as soon as I order which made me wonder is the transaction went through. I did get an email once the items were shipped though.
