Front brake hose orientation?

[sd-slider]

Does the stock front brake hose banjo fitting attach parallel to the caliper(heading towards the rear...), or, at 90* to the caliper?

I'm replacing mine and can't recall what the proper orientation was?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

There is a notch in the caliper which points the hose towards the front of the vehicle.
Be sure you remove 2 old brass washers. One likes to stick on the caliper and you don't want to do the double washer thing. Might have to pry it off with a screwdriver or something.
There should be a colored line of some sort on the new hose. It should not have a twist in it when you are finished replacing it.
The hoses are interchangeable right & left.
I like to remove the bleeder screws at this time and clean them up.
Use fresh clean brake fluid & also clean out the reservoir at this time.
Do a search for proper PowerMaster bleeding procedure.
