Have re installed the axel and can't figure out how to re attach the three prongs of the hose back to the wheel drum (I really don't know auto repair, I'm just trying to help my husband.)
He signed up for ALLDATAIY, but that has been a worthless site!!

sounds like you may have broke the hose going to the brake, it should screw in with a bolt.or it screws right into the disc/drum. this is a front check on the back side where the arrows point to it. we haveno pictures of a hose.
