I tried calling Precision Hose - they did not have the info for a 1953 170B.
Does anyone know the hose size (AN4 ?), the fittings (#4 ?), and the proper length?
Thank You!

Yes, AN4 is typical, but the length is “made to order” because it depends on which brakes you have, and if they are forward or aft of the axle and may even be affected by which gear legs and whether fairings are used. Measure yours from the flare-surface to flare-surface. Aircraft spruce has an excellent tutorial on how to make hoses and how they will make them for you if you measure per their instructs.
