Location: bishop, ca | I've got and carry spare almost-everythings in my car, but realized that the upper
radiator hose is fairly old and should be replaced "just because"....
Does anyone know of a supplier of (non-aftermarket/corrugated-rubber) radiator hoses for the
57+ MoPars????
Of course, for purely spare-parts purposes, a common-generic corrugated rubber upper hose would be
the cheapest/bestest way to go, and it would be relatively easy to install, since it
would be so flexible.
But, I'd still like to have a correct-looking upper radiator hose.
Anybody got a source for OEM (looking) radiator hoses???

Location: Camptown PA | I have a 60 Dodge with a 318, I pulled mine and took it to NAPA. They matched it up to a 7240 which I had to shorten a little to fit. |

I had no problem get new hoses for the F last fall when I rebuilt the engine, a 413 w/AC.
Take a little thinner on a rag and the #'s should come right off w/a little rubbing.

Location: bishop, ca | SO, NAPA 7240 (he shouts in glee).....
Shortening is good: "I keep on cutting this thing, but it's still too short."
