Default Radiator Hose

I checked my RADIATOR HOSE today and they look brittle so I’m gone change them when I do my coolant flush for the winter . I was considering changing all of the coolant hoses I could only find upper and lower for sale and are they any other one like preferment’s and what would be the gain.

Any body know where a I can get the best deal on all the hoses?

I saw an ad last week by one of our vendors on the new silicone ones in assorted colors. You might want to try to find them since you are changing all your hoses anyway.

I believe LG Motorsports is coming out with a hose kit that is available in three colors.
