Where to find a upper radiator hose?

[AuroraGirl]

So amazon isnt very helpful and even autopart stores. I got one from advanced that said "cut to fit" I go to put it on, and then I realize its completely the wrong diamater. Like way too small. If I need to get dimensions i will but does anyone have a part number for a hose like this: Its structurally unsound, leaks, etc. It needs to go.

Napa. Take ur old one in to match pics in the book .. They can usually overnight if u order before 2 or so,, My local Napa has books for older trucks with pics the computer doesn't show. Mine is a gates 21283 my son's K35 has a napa nbh7575

Thank you, Dan! I got the gates. Always liked their belts. Seems a good quality hose. Fits perfectly! Need to move my clamp a bit, I put it too far back, but it should do great!

Any idea where to get spring clamps instead of bolt clamps?

Nice top end! I shop napa as well and if the store does not have it they can get it in a couple days. There are 4 napa stores near me and they are all very different. The one I shop is next to the local Southern states and is the best by far.

Check out RockAuto.com, or just about any auto parts store.

Napa or others may be able to special order ,,
I use regular clamps and I've never had any problems , just don't overtighten them

I just prefer to use spring clamps where there is good accessibility(such as our trucks) because they do a better job holding pressure and less prone to fail.

When I had a Ford Expedition it used spring clamps for all the radiator hoses, so I assume most dealers would stock them in different sizes.
