Gates 89-95 Dodge Dakota 4-Cyl. 2.5L Upper Molded Coolant Hose

This upper molded coolant hose from Gates is specifically made for the 1987-1995 Dodge Dakota equipped with the 4-Cyl. 2.5L engine. It's designed to replace the original hose, ensuring a proper fit and reliable coolant flow to keep your engine running at the right temperature. Over time, original hoses can become brittle, crack, or swell, leading to leaks and potential overheating issues, so replacing it with a well-built part like this is a smart move for maintaining your Dakota's cooling system.

Gates uses a heat-resistant EPDM rubber compound for the inner tube and cover, which is crucial for handling the high temperatures and pressures found in a cooling system. The hose is also reinforced with high-strength synthetic cords to prevent it from expanding or collapsing under load. This construction helps ensure consistent coolant flow and a long service life, even in demanding conditions. Because it's a molded hose, it follows the specific curves and bends needed for your Dakota's engine bay, making installation straightforward without needing to fight a stiff, straight hose.
