Anyone had any luck finding the molded heater hoses that go behind the motor on 76 up trucks? I found the long bypass hose at napa, but no numbers for the small little curved hoses? Im assuming I can use bulk hose, but it's kinda tight back there. Thanks

I've never seen them listed that I've found. The bypass hose is available all over, but those heater hoses across the back must be out of production. They had to be around at some point though, because most of the trucks I've seen have plain rubber hoses and they came stock with ones covered with a fiber mesh. The smog pump hoses usually still have the original ones, so if you've seen those that is the ones.

You can get other hoses with 90s and 45 degree bends and make some up. One of the parts shops here has all sorts of hose hanging around the store, you could bring in your old ones to someplace like that and piece together what you need. A lot of places carry just molded bends too and you hook them together with some bulk hose and make it work.

all i used was bulk heater hose. it doesent look as good but it'll get you to and from work. have them try to look it up as an isusu pup or a impulse

if you can be more specific where's it at and the lenth i'll pull mine for you. i was planning on scrapping my heater setup anyways let me know

If your talking about the molded hose that runs under the intake, and is a pain to get too. I got mine at Orielly's auto. Havent ck'd latelly however.

Yes this would be why I am doing them now, with the head off! - Too bad I cant find the other kind, but it works for now.
