Roger, the one you have is the EXACT length of the lines I have for the front calipers.. HOWEVER yours appears to be marked 1/8" and that would be correct for a rear hose as fronts are 3/16. My as removed matches the replacements length at 335mm/ 13 1/8", but of course the block thread is wrong. Should be what appears to be 7/16 and the replacement is only 3/8.
More research... front and back drums get the hose with the long smooth shank on the block end part # 3461727 and discs up front for some reason = a different hose without the long shank #3461728 (picture attached from MoparJohn's Bird thread). So my car has the wrong hose to begin with, yet it matches perfectly in length to what should have been the cars correct replacement that has no smooth shank, but they put a 3/8" thread end on it.
I'd better make the rounds of town to the jobbers and see if any have the same Dorman H73278 I already bought and see if any have the correct end on before we ship something half way across the world.
THANKS!
