after having a complete brake job using "new" replacement parts every thing was fine except the pedal travel was twice what it was originally. The shop rebleed the system but it is still the same. We took it to the Toyota dealer and explained the situation. The right front brake hose was bad so I need to replace it.

Not only will you have to replace the line but you are going to have to bleed the brakes again.

Then below is the process from the manual on how to replace the flexible brake lines.

Please let us know if you have other questions. Thanks
