  • Inside diameter: 1.75 in at End 1 and 1.75 in at End 2.
  • Centerline length: 6.13 in.
  • Position: Cataloged for upper, lower, and upper pipe-to-radiator locations, depending on the application.

A radiator hose carries hot coolant under pressure, so it can wear over time. It may need replacing if you see coolant seeping at the hose, a hose that feels soft, swollen or cracked, or steady coolant loss. Overheating can have other causes, so diagnose the cooling system first. If a worn hose is the problem, this part replaces it.

Quantity varies by application. Most listed vehicles use one hose, while some use two. The listed applications cover a wide range of Cadillac, Chrysler, DeSoto, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Plymouth models. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
