The vaccum hose that runs from your brake booster to your engine. Would say it's like 6ft or so. Any idea what size it is? Would rather go to autozone pick it up then go back home and install it than have to do it there at the store.

i can measure it tomorow with some string, but take note of this: mine at least, is so stiff that it is hard to even take off the boster, it is like that because it CANNOT crush under the pressure you engine pulls (engines can pull alot), so it would need to be vaccum hose, not just ordinary hose

don't worry about it then.Just wondering if anyone knew off the top of their head. They got the lines there shouldn't take but 5minutes to yank it off and then install the new one. Because currently i have ducktape and electrical tape holding it together had about a 6" section crack. Going on a 1067mile road trip thursday so don't want it to crack again and be SOL.
