Replacement for Hot Air Tube 53002877

[IDMT]

When I initially took “Frank” in to get a tune up about two years ago, they placed a rubber style hose on, then a few months later I noticed it had melted, so I researched the forum and found that Gates Emission Control Duct Hose 28095 was recommended. 

 

Three months ago while in the process of replacing my radiator and then reinstalling the airbox, I tore three #28095., so I put duct tape on the last one.  Necessity and being ticked off, often drives one to find more optimal products, so I researched until I found this product; 96034 Dorman, 2 in (51mm) x 28 in. The “fitment” does not apply to Comanches but it was easier to manipulate into place due to it extended length and was quite durable thus being resistant to my fumbling efforts to reinstall the air box.
