    missing a simple part(s). I need the size or source of the rear brake hose bolt to axle and probably the seal/washer beneath it, much like the driver side brake line clamp..I am uncertain of thread/pitch/length, or if a vendor just has this as some part number.

    It's held on with a self-threading screw like the one here:

    Parts book says 1/4"-14 x 1". Parts store or hardware store item.

    No seal, according to the parts book and what I found on my Jeep.

    I have that one for the rear brake line. I did find a plastic washer under it.

    It's the hose on the pass side to axle it has a hole in the center of it that appears to attach to the axle tube next to the vent. Want to make sure I get the right thread and length or if some retailer just sells the 'rear brake hose bolt'.

    unless it's supposed to 'hover' over that hole?

    I don't see a way to use an adel style clamp there.

    If you are referring to the tee, the size is 5/16 fine thread with I think a copper washer.

    thanks, I'll work from there and be careful with overall length.

    I'm describing the bolt for the flexible brake hose end, which the lines (brake tubes) screw into. It's not a machine thread on my Jeep - instead it's self-tapping bolt, like I showed above. That's also what the parts book calls for, and what I described above.

    The screw in the line clamp on mine was missing. The parts book does not give a description for that other than a "tapping screw". I presume it's the same thread and maybe 1/2" in length.

    sorry I misunderstood and associated the clamp pics. I agree, although tough to tell it does appear to be similar in threading.
