Gates HVAC Heater Hose P/N:12256
Gates 18001 cooling system components for the 2007-2011 Jeep Wrangler 3.8L come as a molded heater hose for the heater outlet, built to carry engine coolant in the cabin heater circuit.
Cracks, a soft or swollen hose, or coolant seeping at either end can mean the hose is worn. Before you replace it, rule out a low coolant level (check it only with the engine cool) and a loose or leaking clamp, since both can look like a hose problem.
The 2007-2011 Jeep Wrangler 3.8L takes one, and this hose is a direct-fit replacement for it.
