The second picture.. the other end.
The other end of the hose.... the end that fits in the brass block attached to the brake cykinder.... is identical.....
My original hose had a spring wrapped around the last 5 inches as protection against abrasion...rubbing.... also keeps the lines semi rigid away from the tire...
I have obtained a suitable spring.... over the counter at Princess Auto.... my intentions are to wrap the new spring by hand around the bottom part. To remove the shiny finish of the spring I have used "gun blueing" acid that turns the spring to dark blue/black.
The same acid trick can be used on new screws and bolts... also help paint to adhere better.
There goes attachment 2......
Will also post some frame picture for Fancesco to see where on the frame the original brake line hose goes..... front and back..
