Radiator hoses
How many of you guys replace your belts and radiator hoses every 4 years? I will replace the belt on my truck today, but the hoses will be more of a pain. The look and feel good!

I have new hoses for my truck. I need to get them on. I'm running the ones that came on it. The lower hose for a mod motor has 6 ends. It looks like a octopus. I'll get them changed after the crappie quit spawning. I did get my SCT tuner installed. It really helped the shifting & may have added a little power. The mid throddle shifts are much better than the Superchip I was running.

When they swell, or squeek too much - THEY GONE!
I won't put up with anything that looks like it will put me alongside the road...
And I usually carry a spare. (At least for a belt)

My hoses look great for their age. No soft spots or swelling.Its time for a flush & new antifreeze. I'll get a new thermostat & do it all at one time. I got my hoses dirt cheap from a friend that worked at a dealer. I wish he hadn't changed jobs. I was getting Ford parts at aftermarket prices.
