Title: Trans. Cooling Flex Hose (Auto)
Post by: J. Huber on November 21, 2007, 20:29:12

I am about to replace one of mine. This is the 10" rubber hose that connects to bottom of the radiator from the trans... The replacement part I got is slightly different than the original. It has a metal coil on the exterior (for added strength?) Has anyone else seen/used this?

Hello James,

I believe this is the correct improved replacement part.

Hi James,

Joe is correct!  The new hoses are improved with a spring-like protector.
