Re: Upper radiator hose T connector broke -- temp repair Posted by JustinHiFi [Email] (#829) [Profile/Gallery] (more from JustinHiFi) on Sun, 21 Apr 2013 07:06:24 In Reply to: Upper radiator hose T connector broke -- temp repair, Micah in NC, Sat, 20 Apr 2013 23:30:33 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Down here in FL, I see this failure pretty often, think its due to the extra heat in the summers. The replacement radiator hoses have been on backorder with Saab for years now and the only replacement is the Uro chinese junk brand. Tried two on two different vehicles and the plastic union on both blew out within a month. So I put together these upper radiator hose union replacements made from billet aluminum and a threaded brass nipple. The 1 1/4 fittings do have a slip ridge to keep the hoses from sliding off as well. So far have installed and sold over 60 units and have a 100% success rate.
