Keep coolant flowing between the engine and radiator with the Gates Premium Molded Coolant Hose, part number 22883, an upper radiator hose made from EPDM to OEM-quality specifications. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2003-2005 Dodge Neon with the L4-2.4L engine. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
Gates builds its molded coolant hose line to fit upper, lower, bypass, heater and other coolant applications, which can save you a trip to the dealer for a radiator hose. This hose is pre-shaped to fit and to help create well-sealed connections.
- Construction: EPDM tube, synthetic fiber knit reinforcement, and an EPDM cover that resists heat, ozone and chemical coolant.
- Vacuum resistance: Specifically engineered materials resist collapse under vacuum.
- Electrochemical protection: Engineered to resist electrochemical degradation, which Gates identifies as the leading cause of hose failure.
- Standards and temperature: Meets the requirements of SAE 20R4, class D2 and DIN 73411, class A (except for tolerances). Temperature range: -40°F to +257°F (-40°C to +125°C).
- Dimensions: 25.9 in (658 mm) centerline length and 1.25 in (32 mm) inside diameter at both ends. The hose is molded, with no branches and no spring.
Signs that an upper radiator hose may need replacing include coolant seepage at the ends, cracks, swelling, or a soft or collapsed section. Gates recommends replacing the hose clamps each time you install a new coolant hose. This hose is for coolant only and must not be used to carry fuel or oil. The listed applications use one hose. Country of origin: United States.
