Coolant hoses - service parts

[fordsbyjay]

I have a MK 3 from 2006 ish. It has a 2004 Mach 1 4.6l DOHC. The coolant hoses are drying up and need replacing but I have no idea who made them or where to buy replacement parts. Can I just use straight rad hose and cut sections? I tried searching and found a ton of build threads but nothing directly related. A point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Jason

They look like parts from a basic kit, you might check with factory five and see if they have them.

Just buy a straight hose from the auto parts store and cut the lengths you need. Every hose on my car just started out as a hose hanging in O'Reilly's back room.

Thanks I'll try that.

IIRC those hose pieces are thicker than most hoses and came with internal spacers to fit things like the filler etc. I thought I had a set for you, but I must have pitched them with the hoses. I do have some of the spacers if you need them.

Honestly, I would hang tight for a day or two, there is bound to be someone that has a set after upgrading to cool tubes.

I have some but located in Toronto, Canada. Shipping might be prohibitive for you. If you want them they are all yours, just pay shipping.
Full disclosure I could never get them to seal, that’s why I upgraded to the cooltubes.
They were picked up with the kit Feb 2017.

Same with me. Even after doing the rivet trick, I blew a hose before getting to the end of my 40ft driveway. They went, rather ceremoniously, in the bin.

Boy, that is not sounding good. Looks like his held up fine. I have the corrugated hose on my Coyote, just go carted up till now. I did the pop rivet trick, just not confident now.
