And that's why I suggested Autozone........ because is half that price!
But your $2 fix is obviously even better if that's what you want to hear?

why would you need a 180 degree hose? i bypassed mine and i just put a smaller pipe inbetween the upper and lower heater hose. and i used hose clamps to secure it.

All I did was disconnect the hose off the heater core, and wrapped it around to the other pipe.....free!!

Since then I pulled my dash, installed the new heater core.....but have still not got around to hooking it back up

You can use a regular hose like stated, but you have to remeber that they are 2 different fitting sizes (your either going to strech the heck out of one end or tighten the crap out of the other and hope it dont leak). I have seen some rigs using a small pipe adapter connecting the different size hoses, but ALMOST STOCK has hit the nail on the head..


(By the way, thanks for the pics of the 14139)
