I believe it is a formed hose. The diameter is 5/8". I can find everything else in the world for this truck except the one part that is pouring coolant all over the yard. Tried to make up a hose, but the radius of the turns seems too much to keep from kinking the dang thing. Bernie Call Gates/Grainger/Ford and see if they have a number for it and order it. My first pickup was a '61 F-100. Fond memories: 1) Taking it flying off the little motocross jumps on the cliffs overlooking the Mayfair market in Vista, CA. with my MX buddies. I did that with my '62 Corvair convertibles, too. 2) Driving (drunk, unfortunately) across the Carlsbad Raceway motocross track the day before a race with a big, shiny SS hot dog steamer in the bed, heading for my friend's concession stand. 3) NOT having to find strange coolant lines because it was a manual tranny. titter 4) Standing next to the engine (either side) while doing tune-ups because there was all that room under tha hood. -- Some days, it's not even worth chewing through the restraints. |
