Gates 02-03 Dodge Ram Pickup V-8 5.9L Upper Molded Coolant Hose

If you've got a 2002 or 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.9L V-8 engine, this is the upper molded coolant hose you'll need. It connects your engine's thermostat housing to the radiator, letting coolant circulate to keep everything at the right temperature. A cracked or leaking hose can quickly lead to overheating, so replacing it with a well-built part is important for keeping your truck running smoothly.

Gates makes this hose specifically for your Ram, so it's shaped to fit right without any fuss. It's made from heat-resistant rubber that can handle the constant cycling of hot coolant and the engine bay's temperature. This means it should hold up well over time, resisting the kind of degradation that causes stock hoses to fail prematurely. You're getting a solid replacement part that's designed to go on without needing any modifications.
