The main difference between the Dexter Hydraulic Flex Hose # 18018-SF and the Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Hose # bh-3mfs90ff-1-5 is the manufacturer. If you wanted a direct replacement for your boat trailer then you want the # 18018-SF. Otherwise, they are both 18" long and have the same fittings so the only other difference would be the price.

Answer 1

Kodiak brake hose #BH-3MFS90FF-1-5 does not have that little clip you are referring to and Dexter hose #18018-SF does have it. For either line I recommend bracket #T0776300. For clips I recommend #T0776400.
