I have been looking myself, it appears we will have to make our own or find at them from a part out or junk yard.The rubber hose that connects to the water pump cracked and needs to be replaced. I can’t seem to find this part anywhere. Has anyone had any luck? I’ve found some heater core hoses, but they are all rubber and don’t have a connection for the steam vent. The part number referenced is ideally what I want, but I am open to other options if someone has had to make this repair.
The heater core hoses are just bypassed at the moment, but I need to replace the hoses from the heater core to the water pump.
If you could post photos that would be awesome.Thank you for replying, it reminded me that I didn’t provide an update.
So, I couldn’t find the hose anywhere and it left me with a couple options. I could either remove all the hoses/pipes from the firewall to the water pump, or replace just the rubber hose at the water pump. I decided to cut the crimped connection off of the hard line. When cutting, I made sure to leave the last “ridge” of the hard line so a new rubber hose would fit on there and not slip off. I did this to both hoses as the other hose was not far behind from blowing out as well. Used a 8” piece of 5/8” heater hose for one line, and 3/4” for the other. Put hose clamps on each end and… voila! Looks factory, and only coat a few bucks for some hose and clamps. All fixed up!!!
