The Brake Hose Kit 79-88 GM Intermediate Car is a critical hydraulic system upgrade for classic and muscle car owners looking to restore or modernize braking performance on Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick platforms from the late 1970s through 1988. This Russell-engineered kit replaces aging, brittle original equipment hoses that deteriorate over decades, compromising brake feel and safety. Whether you're rebuilding a Chevelle, GTO, Cutlass, or Skylark, this hose kit restores confidence in your stopping power and eliminates the risk of brake line failure that plagues neglected vintage iron.
Russell manufactures this brake hose kit to OEM-equivalent specifications, featuring DOT-compliant reinforced rubber construction that withstands high-pressure hydraulic cycles without swelling, cracking, or perishing. The kit includes all necessary hoses routed from the master cylinder to the wheel cylinders, pre-measured and ready for direct installation without modification. Stainless steel or zinc-plated fittings resist corrosion and ensure leak-free connections, while the flexible hose design accommodates steering and suspension articulation without kinking or fouling engine bay components. This is a complete system solution—no need to source individual sections or adapt mismatched replacements.
Restorers, hot rodders, and daily-driver enthusiasts benefit equally from this kit; original hoses become brittle and permeable after 35+ years, leading to spongy pedal feel and moisture intrusion into brake fluid. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic mechanical skill—simply disconnect the old hoses, bleed the system, and install the new lines using the correct adapter sizes for your specific model year. The compact kit footprint (5.65 x 2.85 x 7.85 inches, weighing just 0.72 pounds) ships efficiently and fits easily in any toolbox. Proper brake hose maintenance is non-negotiable for vintage vehicles; this Russell kit delivers the reliability and performance your classic intermediate deserves.
