Radiator hose P/N needed.

[Brad426]

Help Please?
69 Valiant 360 with a Be Kool 10016 alum. rad. Can someone suggest part numbers for upper and lower radiator hoses. Or application. No problem trimming to fit. I just do not want to splice a hose. The local autparts store guys are going to kill me for being a pest? Thank you.rayer:

Man, I JUST went through this on my Dart, and I have both numbers...300 miles away in my toolbox

Hint: They both came from Autozone. I know that! Let me see if they can look up my purchase history....

If you're running a mechanical fan, install it first, I had a helluva time getting hoses to clear it.

I can wait Bud. I'm going with an electric fan set up. I've been to Lordco three times trying to match hoses. Now I have to supply coffee & donuts...LOL

I lucked out. The upper rad hose P/N is Dayco 70480 and the lower is Dayco P/N: 70389. They do require a bit of trimming. Thank you GATES & LORDCO.

I decided to stick with the Corbin clamps. They look cool and keep the preasure on at all times. Over the years I found Corbin clamps to be the best. Some advice. Get youself a pair of Corbin Clamp plyers. KD Tool makes a modern version. Slip joint and channel lock plyers are just asking for a chipped tooth or a fleash wound. I know.

Well, I just got the numbers that I used...and they're the same ones you found.

Small world! And thanks for the tip on those pliers. I hate using band clamps because it's so hard to find good ones!
