Gates 02-05 Dodge Ram Pickup V-8 4.7L Tee To Reservoir Molded Coolant Hose

When you're working on your 2002-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 4.7L V8 engine, you'll get the Gates 24207 molded coolant hose. This part is specifically designed to connect the coolant tee fitting to the overflow reservoir, ensuring your cooling system stays properly pressurized and your coolant circulates where it needs to go.

Gates is known for making well-built cooling system parts, and this hose is no exception. It's constructed from heat-resistant rubber compounds that can stand up to the tough conditions under the hood, like high temperatures and contact with coolant. The molded shape means it follows the factory routing precisely, making installation straightforward without needing to fight a stiff, generic hose into place. This helps prevent kinks and ensures a secure connection, which is crucial for preventing leaks and keeping your engine running at the right temperature.

Replacing a coolant hose like this is a smart move if you notice any cracking, swelling, or leaks. It's a relatively simple job that can save you from more serious overheating issues down the road.
