wadeM Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 I am replacing all the coolant hoses and do not know what size thry are.they are stretched to hell and dry rotted.
Blue XJ Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 Why not just go to the parts store and ask for the replacement hoses for your year vehicle? It's always worked for me in the past.
yxmj Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 :agree: But for a base line i think one heater hose is 3/4 and one is 5/8 the one from the resevoir is I believe 3/8. Did you try the Google machine?
johnnyc Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 One heater hose is 5/8" and the other is 11/16". If you can't find 11/16" hose, you can finagle 5/8" hose on there, or use 3/4" hose and double clamps.
Keyav8r Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 I bought hoses for my 88 at Advance Auto but they didn't have al of them. The two long hoses were just a tad short so I had to do a little McGyvering. The hose from the tee to the reservoir has is a tapered hose (larger on one end than the other) if I remember correctly. The only reason I changed them is that I had to replace the heater core (a real joy!). I retained the heater valve so I had to buy some hose by the foot and cut/bend to fit. You may be able to find all the hoses by searching NAPA, Autozone, O'Reilly's, Rock Auto, etc. It may be easier to do if you're eliminating the valve. There's at least one post on eliminating the valve in the DIY section.
Bornindesert Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Most of the coolant hoses are molded and a couple are expanded to fit a larger sized connection at one of the ends. It was more difficult to identify all of the replacements than it should have been, but I ordered all but one from RockAuto. If Team Cherokee has a kit, save yourself some time and get them there. The heater control valve is available from there too if you want to replace yours.
wvzj Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Team Cherokee sells the whole set. I just ordered the set from there. Two are NOS and the rest are Dayco, but beware it took me 3 weeks to get mine from them.
91Pioneer Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 or try rock auto for OEM RockAuto does not have any OEM coolant hoses. TeamCherokee is the closest I could find and apparently they're only partially OEM now.
