Looking for the horse shoe clips for the frame side of the front flex hoses. This is the catalog pic from the AC Dilbert professionals, showing the clip (and bragging about all hardware included). I got both front lines (in sealed OE bags) and neither had any hardware included.

They sell the square style clips but I think these hold and look better - more of a 270 design.

Does ANYONE know the PN or where these can be procured new? They still come with the house brands at AZ, Oreillys, etc. so gotta be available somewhere. Not interested in JY finds.

I believe those are just the retaining aka holding clips . Crimped on the line to keep it from moving on thru the hole . I haven’t seen any like that just to lock the line in place .

Yep. Then the horse shoe type clip slides into the wide groove.

The retaining lip is part of the end connector......then the clip to lock it in place. Going to see if one of the blister pack stores can get them, since they come with their house brand hoses.

Amazed I cant find these as they will rust and break.

I noted to Rock that the lines had no hardware and that (their choices) I would rather they send me the hardware.....but they responded with a return label to send them back. Apparently the CCP isn't including the hardware anymore.

I’d slice a flat washer and squish it around the fitting if I couldn’t find them. Can’t see em from the wheel wells.
JMO. Sorry didn’t answer the question but a possible solution.
