Hey eggman,

According to the Raybestos website, the hose for the Bronco is 15.5" long versus the highboy which is 24 5/16" long. The threads should be the same at both ends. The only thing that might be a problem is the bolt hole in the 't' end of the hose. I don't know if it will be the same size. You should be able to get both hoses at an auto parts store to compare.

Yes I am needing to replace the hose on my '68 and the length is my biggest concern.I ordered one from Bronco Graveyard,I am tired of the blank stare I get at the auto parts store
when I tell them I need parts for a '68 :lol: Hard to find a skilled counter person here :(
thank's for the input Steve.
