Radiator hose source ?
« on: April 19, 2011, 07:56:19 PM »
Hello,
what is everyone using for a non AC Upper radiator hose ? I ordered the lower from Russ Martin in Cali, but they did not have a upper hose. Not interested in the corrigated crap.

Thanks,
DL

I use a Gates 20704 for the upper, original app is mid-70's Ford.
It's molded and looks /fits nice.
However, I see a different hose being used on most GS's online. Not sure where those come from.
