I guess I'm confused.. Do you need the actual thermostat housing/water outlet itself? Or do I just not remember the threaded part being so elaborate? I thought the CTS went into the actual housing..

The heater hose connects to a metal pipe which is attached to the threaded hex fitting that screws into the water outlet housing. The temp sensor screws into the side of the threaded hex fitting. I need the hex fitting and the pipe that is between the heater hose and the water outlet housing. I surfed the Dorman HELP! site and didn't come up with anything. We have a great shop in Garden Grove that carries all kinds of fittings and I will check there. They stocked the same kind of fitting for my Aerostar, a part I couldn't find at any auto parts store.

Those stainless steel fittings in the links above look pretty nice but aren't cheap. I imagine they'd last a long time though. Has anybody found this part at a local store or rigged up something completely different that gets the job done?
Mine's not looking so good. I've been using the Aerostar as a backup vehicle while I change the head gasket and clutch on my ford escort. but now both cars are dead in the water.
I was thinking about going to the hardware store and seeing if I can find some brass or galvanized plumbing fittings that might get me from those size threads back to heater hose but I wanted to see what solutions other people were using first.
