I've got my dads old truck, a 1991 F250 with the Banks Turbo on it... You can call these beginner questions... Between the plastic intake piece and the filter intake is an approx 4" diameter 8" long piece of flex hose connecting the two... It's got some tears in it and is pretty brittle, what can I replace this with??? Didn't know whether to head to Lowes or O'Reillys...
Also, the front plastic intake piece attaches to the front frame crosspiece... The bracket and the hole in the frame are approx 5/16 .312... I'm guessing it had some kind of attached nut but it's gone now and I'd like to replace it... It's a blind hole and didn't think a 1/4 pop rivet would be big enough to hold it in place... Would you install a rivnut or something like this??? Thanks for yalls suggestions...

the rad support used a clip nut. you could possible use a rivnut, i never tried one there.

as for the air intake tube, i would go for lowes and get a piece of 4 inch aluminum drier vent flex hose.
