Description

Keep coolant moving between the engine and radiator with the Gates Radiator Coolant Hose 21953, the upper-position hose that carries hot coolant from the engine to the top of the radiator. It installs as a direct-fit replacement across a wide range of classic Ford and Mercury models plus select BMW and Jaguar applications — including the 1964-1970 Ford Mustang, 1969-1979 Ford F-100, 1962-1969 Ford Fairlane, 1967-1969 Mercury Cougar, 1979-1981 BMW 528i and 1978-1987 Jaguar XJ6. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of 40 applications.

Upper radiator position: routes coolant from the engine outlet to the upper radiator inlet.
Direct-fit replacement: designed to install on the listed applications.
Cooling-system service part: replaces an aged, cracked, or leaking original hose to help restore proper coolant flow.

Over time a radiator hose can harden, swell, or split, allowing coolant to seep or spray under pressure. If a worn upper hose is the cause of a coolant leak or overheating, this Gates 21953 replaces it.

Interchange: Manufacturer part number 21953.
