usually ill take a hose from the luv to the parts store and come as close as passable to the luvs with what they have hanging in the back... sometimes you have to add a union and make two hose work where the luv only had one... but they work fine

yeah all my hoses were trashed when i got this truck and it blew, so during the rebuild my dad and i just went to a parts store that carries hoses and had them match as close as possible. some of the hoses we had to cut, and bend as much as we could because they weren't made specifically for my engine, but they work perfect. just kind of a tight fit!

I had to to replace that same hose just this week on my 80 2x4. I took the old hose with me to the local AutoZone and to my amazement, they had that exact same hose hose molded to fit perfect. They didn`t have it in stock but they got it for me in 3 days. $22.00 !

I had the local NAPA match up some hoses to replace the old heater hoses. They are almost a perfect fit and when I find the receipt, I will post all the part numbers for the hoses!
