Radiator Bomb

[mark sr]

I usually buy whatever hose they have available at the parts store. I don't recall ever replacing a hose a 2nd time [not counting 30-40 yrs ago]

Well I put a new Gates hose on. It's not leaking for now but I'm still on the hunt for a better thicker hose. Also for constant tension spring clamps. One of the stainless steel screw clamps failed.
For a 2005 the clamp sizes that came off:

Top hose radiator side 42mm
Top hose thermostat side 47mm
Bottom hose pump side 55mm
Bottom hose radiator side 50mm or 47. This one broke.

Problem is not having to buy 10 pr 20 of them. All I could find is a package if them for $20 each size.
