Glenyboy Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 Anyone got any pics of how they're hoses are routed? I got a new set and the one from the lower engine just won't reach the radiator! It's had me going crazy trying to get it but it's about 2 inches out. The clymers doesn't give much info apart from showing you what hoses go where. And ive checked the new ones and they're the same size as the old! Quote
BigRed350x Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 Are you trying to go to the outside of your frame rail down there by the engine? The lower hose goes to the bottom of the radiator and the upper hose goes to the top of the radiator. If the old hose and the new hose are the same length, and the old one fit,then you're doing something funky. - Jared Quote
Finch Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 are they stock hoses with the bends in them? they should fit are you inside the frame? Quote
Glenyboy Posted January 1, 2012 Author Report Posted January 1, 2012 Problem solved I was looking at the exploded diagram all wrong the way it looks on the diagram makes it look like they go to the opposite ports on the rad. That's what you get for trying to do things on the quick, it takes twice as long and you end up looking like a dick! Lol Chuck me in the roostin room! Lol Quote

Glenyboy Posted January 1, 2012 Author Report Posted January 1, 2012 I got orange silicon ones they're some of the dearer ones they sell on eBay 'g4s or a4s' or something along them lines. A guy over here was selling them cheap for about $30. They make pipes for cars which I know to be good quality, it's a shame I've gotta cut one to fit my trailtech sensor. Quote
