In today's video we're fitting new brake hoses and have opted for stainless steel braided over the previously fitted factory default rubber hoses, the there's two reasons for the change which are that the brake ferrules on the existing hoses are are corroded and the rubber is old, also the vehicle has a 2" lift which means they should be using extended hoses for safety and this was picked up during a recent MOT test (tight when jacked up).
You'll need a brake flare spanner size 11mm, vise grips, penetrating oil, wire brush and make sure everything is cleaned up prior to removing the nuts and hoses it makes the job a lot easier.
I hope this video is helpful to you, I've put some links to the hoses and clips below if you need them thanks!
Extended Hoses:

Extra long (for big suspension lifts e.g. more than 2"):
